FAQ

What licensing schemes does this cover? Selective, additional and mandatory HMO licensing schemes operated by English local authorities. We link to each council's official scheme page — we don't republish fees.

Why doesn't every council appear? Only councils with an active or announced scheme are listed. If your postcode returns 'no scheme found', check the council's housing pages directly — schemes change regularly.

Is this legal advice? No. This is a signposting tool that points to the responsible council's official page. Licensing decisions are made by the local authority under the Housing Act 2004.
