    * For temporary licences the fee payable replaces the usual application fee and annual fees and the licence period is for six months from the date the licence is granted. The licence will cease to be valid after this period and all licence revocation documentation must be completed and returned to HTA. Any activities required on a temporary licence will be charged at 50% for a six-month licence.

     

     

    Background


    We have not made any changes to licence fees for 2021/22 and we have replicated the same fees structure as last year. We have done this:

    • To ensure we are not adding any additional burden or financial pressure on establishments at an already challenging time; and
    • Because we undertook a review of our fees structure last year.

    If you have any questions regarding HTA licence fees, please email finance@hta.gov.uk.
