A Pavement Licence (also known as an Outdoor Seating Licence or Tables and Chairs Licence) allows hospitality businesses to place removable furniture on public highways — typically pavements outside your premises — for customers to eat and drink. Without one, local councils can remove your furniture or issue fines.

Since March 2024, the pavement licensing regime has become a permanent fixture under the Business and Planning Act 2020, offering hospitality businesses unprecedented certainty for long-term planning. The streamlined application process eliminates the complexity of dual planning and highway applications, replacing months of bureaucracy with a single 28-day determination period.

Homz UK manages the entire pavement licence application process in the UK, ensuring your proposal meets all council, accessibility, and planning rules.[/vc_column_text][us_separator size=”small”][vc_row_inner columns=”2″][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
