Refunds
The part A fee covers the cost of processing the licence.
You do not have to pay part B of the licensing fee if we do not issue a licence.
We do not refund fees if the property no longer needs the licence. For example, if the property becomes owner occupied or is no longer let as a House with Multiple Occupation (HMO) before the licence has expired.
