What Happens If My Licence Application Is Denied?

AI Summary

If your licence application is denied by Havering Council, you will not receive a refund for the application fee you've paid. This applies to the initial application fee (Part A), which is non-refundable whether your application is refused or withdrawn for reasons other than specific exceptions.

Here's a summary of the relevant actions and their financial implications:

Action Applicable Fee
Application refused by the council Part A application fee (no refund)
Application withdrawn by the applicant Part A application fee (no refund)
Application made in error (e.g., duplicate) Refund of any fees paid

It's important to be aware that if you withdraw your application, you won't receive a refund unless it falls under certain conditions, such as making a duplicate application. For more details, you can refer to Havering's licensing information here.
