Clare's Law, which enables people to check the police record of their partners, will be expanded to cover all of England and Wales.
It has been piloted in Greater Manchester, Wiltshire, Nottinghamshire and Gwent since September 2012.
The policy is named after Clare Wood, who was murdered by her ex-boyfriend George Appleton at her Salford home in February 2009.
She was unaware of his history of violence against women.
The law is expected to take effect across England and Wales in March.
'Escape if necessary'Home Secretary Theresa May, who will issue a statement to the House of Commons later, told the Sun there had been "considerable confusion" up until now about when or if police can share information on someone's violent past with members of the public.
"Clare's Law provides people with the information they need to escape an abusive situation before it ends in tragedy," she said.
"The national scheme will ensure that more people can make informed decisions about their relationship and escape if necessary.
"This is an important step towards ensuring we do better by women like Clare Wood in the future."
Mrs May said 88 women were killed by their partners last year.
