Excluded licences


Some occupiers do not enjoy the right to be evicted by the Court. These are called excluded licencees. The only times a landlord does not need to bring Court proceedings are where;

  • it is a lodging arrangement and the lodger shares living accommodation with the landlord, for example, a kitchen or bathroom
  • the letting was for a holiday
  • certain designated hostel lettings

In these cases, the landlord only needs to give reasonable notice and it does not even have to be in writing.
