PAYE Registration

Does an employer "have to" register for PAYE scheme with HMRC if the staff is being paid below the Secondary threshold of £9100?

Hi,
 

As an employer you must register a PAYE scheme if any of the following apply - you pay an employee (including directors) at or more than the Lower Earnings Limit (LEL) for National Insurance.  This is currently £123 per week, £533 per month or £6396 per year  - any employee has any other PAYE employment income - any employee gets pension payments, including State pension  - any employee gets taxble benefits including Employment Support Allowance (ESA) - you provide employees (including directors) with taxable expenses and benefits - your business is a subcontractor in the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) claiming CIS deductiions suffered - your business will use subcontractors in CIS  . Thank you.
