Pavement licence

The Business and Planning Act 2020 has now been fully retained since 31/03/2024.  This is a fast-track process for these businesses to obtain permission, in the form of a “pavement licence”, from Slough Borough Council for the placement of furniture such as tables and chairs on the pavement outside their premises.

The cost is £500 for a new application and will be valid for 1 year from grant.  There is now a renewal which costs £350 and will last for 2 years.

To pay the fees go to our online payments system for Occasional Use Permits Grants and:

  1. enter in the amount
  2. for the unique licence reference, quote R9206 D316 A3403
  3. continue with the rest of the process with your details.
