A £164 late fee will apply if you fail to register or your current registration is allowed to expire.

You must register with each council in which you let property. You can do this during the online application process.

Members of the public will be able to view the register on the Internet. By entering the postcode and selecting the property address they will be able to see if the property is registered. They will also see your name and address or the name and address of your appointed agent.
