A new licensing scheme in Jersey means that from 1 May 2024 all landlords in Jersey will need to have a Renting Dwellings Licence for each unit of residential properties they rent.

What is this new scheme?

The new Rented Dwelling Licensing Scheme has been introduced by the Government of Jersey ("Government") as part of its work to improve the standards of rental accommodation in the Island.

The Government has introduced minimum safety standards relating to such matters as electrical safety, gas safety and smoke detection along with a list of prescribed hazards.

This regime is set out in the Public Health and Safety (Rented Dwellings) (Licensing) (Jersey) Regulations 2023 (the "Regulations").
