SELECTIVE LICENSING · REVIEWED RECORD

Westminster selective licensing: designation 2

Westminster’s second selective designation covers seven mapped wards. Its legal area is separate from designation 1 despite their matching dates.

Evidence reviewed Recorded period: to Revision 1
The exact address needs a boundary check.

This is a partial-area designation. Ward names and postcodes cannot by themselves establish whether this property is covered. Use the council map or address service.

Which properties does the designation cover?

Bayswater, Hyde Park, Lancaster Gate, Marylebone, Pimlico North, Regent’s Park and West End, inside the red-edged Annex A area.

  • Privately rented dwellings inside designation 2’s boundary, unless excluded.

Scope, exclusions and separate checks

Ward labels alone do not establish a property match. The 2026 additional HMO renewal and statutory selective exemptions need separate checking.

  • Mandatory or additional licensable HMOs use the relevant HMO route instead.
  • Social housing, management orders, temporary exemptions and statutory exempt tenancies require the notice’s exact definitions.

Fees and the council application

Use Westminster’s current fee schedule and application process for your property. This record does not infer a fee from another council or a past year. A Rental Licensing subscription does not pay the council, submit an application or grant a licence.

What to do next

  1. Use designation 2’s map for the exact address.
  2. Keep the property licence’s own expiry and conditions in its record.
