Landlord licensing in Kensington and Chelsea
Everywhere in England, a shared house or flat needs a mandatory HMO licence when five or more people from two or more households live there.
The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea also runs additional HMO licensing across the borough, which brings smaller shared homes, of three or four people from more than one household, into licensing.
There is no selective licensing scheme, so a home let to a single household does not need a council licence.
Check the council's licensing page
Checked 2 October 2026. Licensing is the landlord's responsibility and rules change, so the council's own page is the final word. Emilecon does not apply for licences.
