‘Register your rental property’ opens on 15 December 2026
The Government has confirmed that the ‘Register your rental property’ service will begin rolling out across England on 15 December 2026, starting in the West Midlands. Landlords of assured or regulated tenancies must register themselves and each of their properties. Registration will then roll out region by region, with all landlords actively letting required to have registered by 14 November 2027.
NINE REGIONS. NINE DEADLINES. Is every property in the diary?

The annual registration fee is £65 per property, and registration must be renewed each year. #MHCLG has confirmed that the fee will be pro-rated during the rollout, so landlords who register first do not pay more. Landlords who do not register risk being fined. Offline registration routes will be available for landlords who need them.
See Landlord Registration Checker link below which landlords can use as a resource and will allow you to use a postcode to check registration dates.
