Cost and duration of pavement licences

Following the changes in the law on 31 March 2024, Birmingham City Council is currently reviewing its pavement licence policy.

Applications have been reopened while this review takes place.

The current application fee is £100 for both renewals and new applications.

If granted, a pavement licence will last for 1 year from the day of granting.

The application fee and duration of the licence are likely to change following the conclusion of the review.

The changes do not affect any licences granted before 31 March 2024, which will still operate as normal until their stated expiry date.
