Croydon Licensing: Which Licence Applies, and Licensing Flats Together
Croydon has selective licensing in 14 wards and additional HMO licensing across the borough, both active since 25 September 2026. Landlords need to identify the correct scheme and prepare the gas safety record for each property.
Which Croydon Licence Applies
Croydon has three licensing schemes based on property type, household numbers, and location. Landlords need an annual gas safety check for appliances they provide in rental homes.
| Licence | Who it covers | Area | Gas document |
|---|---|---|---|
Selective |
Who it covers Single households, single tenants and two individuals sharing |
Area 14 designated wards |
Gas document The council lists a valid gas safety certificate, if applicable |
Additional HMO |
Who it covers Three or four people from two or more households |
Area Borough-wide |
Gas document The application checklist lists a current gas safety certificate where the property has gas |
Mandatory HMO |
Who it covers Five or more people from two or more households |
Area Borough-wide |
Gas document The licence requires an annual gas safety certificate where gas is supplied |
Licensing Several Flats in One Block: The Multi-Dwelling Discount
Croydon offers a £100 reduction on Part A for the second and later flats under its selective licence discount. Flats need common ownership and management control, a location within the same block, and all applications submitted together. Each flat needs its own licence and current gas safety record. The council gives 14 days to provide missing information on an incomplete application.
Licensing Several Croydon Flats at Once
Croydon Council's multi-dwelling discount requires all eligible selective licence applications for flats in the same block to be submitted together. Each flat needs a current gas safety record on that date. All landlord certificates carry out gas safety checks and email a dated CP12 record after each check. Keep each record ready for the relevant licence application.

Gas Safety Regulations and Landlord Responsibilities in Croydon
What the Law Requires
Regulation 36 of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 requires landlords to arrange annual gas safety checks. A Gas Safe registered engineer must check the appliances, fittings, and flues the landlord provides. Existing tenants receive the record within 28 days. New tenants receive it before moving in. This duty applies nationally.
Gas Safety Records
After every check, the gas safety record must list identified defects and remedial action taken. Findings are classified as Immediately Dangerous (ID) or At Risk (AR). Never describe the outcome as a pass or fail.
Carbon Monoxide Alarms
Under SI 2022/707, landlords must install a carbon monoxide alarm in every living room with a fixed fuel-burning appliance, except a gas cooker. This is a separate legal duty, not part of the gas safety inspection.
2026 Legal Update
Section 21 ended for private landlords on 1 May 2026. The national PRS Database opens in stages from 15 December 2026, and London landlords must register by 14 October 2027.
Croydon Licensing and Gas Safety
Croydon selective licensing refers to a valid gas safety certificate, if applicable. Additional HMO application wording requires a current certificate where the property has a gas supply. These are licensing requirements. The national annual gas safety duty comes from Regulation 36.
