Term 'stuck off' normally pertains to professionals who are regulated, for example, solicitors, Accountants, doctors, and other health professionals. They are required to be registered with a regulatory authority. The regulatory authority will dictate that their practitioners adhere to certain standards of competency or code of conduct. Failure to maintain the required standards would led to a disciplinary proceeding and the regulatory authority may choose to 'strike' the practitioners name off their register. Struck off practitioners are not longer allow to practise their profession or use the professional designation, for example, chartered accountant, doctor or solicitors.

In certain circumstances practitioners may after a period of rehabilitation be able to re-register and return to practise. But, it would depend of the gravity of the offence and the time passed.
