Incomplete applications will not be accepted and will be rejected.

Planning Permission

It is the responsibility of a Private Hire Operator to ensure that appropriate planning permission exists for the operational address to be used for their business purposes.

By submitting an application, applicants confirm that they understand that their operating address may need planning permission or a lawful development certificate, and are responsible for obtaining this.

Further guidance can be seen on the following Planning web pages.
