Why you need it

We have not yet mapped an enabling instrument for this licence. That is a gap in our graph, not a statement about the law, so we do not guess.

Who issues it

Your local council issues this. Councils apply the same statute but set their own fees, conditions and timescales.

Where to apply

Duty, penalty and exemption labels are Guvnor’s analysis of the enabling instrument, not the instrument itself. Fees, forms and conditions are set by the issuing authority — always check the linked source.
