Yorkshire and the Humber is the fifth of England’s nine regions to join the register. You can register early, from 15 December 2026.

Is my property in Yorkshire and the Humber?

The deadline follows where the property is, not where you live. Yorkshire and the Humber covers West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, East Riding of Yorkshire, North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire, including Leeds, Sheffield, Bradford, Hull, York, Wakefield, Doncaster, Huddersfield, Rotherham and Grimsby.

These are the areas in England’s official Yorkshire and the Humber region. If your property is close to a regional boundary, confirm its region on GOV.UK when you register. Properties elsewhere have their own windows.

What it costs

£65 per property, each year. One let property is £65 a year, three are £195 and five are £325.

What you’ll need

  • Your details: name, date of birth, address, phone number and email (or your company’s details).
  • The property and tenancy: the address, type of home, bedrooms, rent, number of people living there and any HMO licence.

You register yourself; a letting agent can’t do it for you. Joint landlords each register. The full details are in our landlord register guide.

If you miss the deadline

  • A civil penalty of up to £7,000, and up to £40,000 for false information or continued breaches.
