What are the HMO licensing requirements in Nottingham?
Nottingham requires an HMO licence where a property has five or more people forming two or more households who share facilities. Nottingham operates mandatory and additional licensing. Additional schemes often extend licensing to smaller HMOs — sometimes borough-wide, sometimes in named wards.
3,298 licensed HMOs are in our imported register.
Mandatory licences in England normally run for five years from issue. You must renew before expiry — operating without a valid licence can lead to unlimited fines and rent repayment orders.

Frequently asked questions about HMO licensing in Nottingham
- What are the HMO licence requirements in Nottingham?
- Mandatory licensing applies where a property is occupied as an HMO and meets the threshold for England — typically five or more people forming two or more households who share facilities. Nottingham also operates additional licensing, which can bring smaller shared houses into licensing in part or all of the district. You must meet management, fire safety, amenity, and room-size conditions as part of the application. Use our HMO licence checker for a first pass, then confirm with the council before letting or purchasing.
- Does Nottingham have additional or selective licensing?
- Yes. The licence schemes table above shows what Nottingham currently operates based on published register and council data. Additional schemes often cover 3–4 person HMOs in chosen wards or borough-wide. Boundaries and start dates change — always verify the active scheme on the council's HMO licensing pages before marketing a property.
- Where can I search licensed HMOs in Nottingham?
- Use the searchable register on this page to filter by address, postcode, or licence reference where published. The map below the table plots geocoded properties so you can explore by area. Data is imported from the council's public register and refreshed periodically — see the key figures table for how current the extract is. For legal confirmation on a specific property, cross-check the council's official register link above the table.
- How do I apply for an HMO licence in Nottingham?
- Applications are made directly to Nottingham, not through AgentHMO. You will usually need property details, floor plans, fire-risk information, and details of the licence holder or manager. Pay the council fee at application or as instructed — the key figures table shows the published mandatory fee where we have it, but always confirm the latest amount on the council site. Allow several weeks to months for processing, especially for new licences or properties that need works to meet conditions.
