HMO rules for Ammanford
- Room sizes and amenity ratios are set by each council: England’s national room sizes do not apply.
- Planning: 3–6 sharers is use class C4, and changing a house to C4 always needs planning permission in Wales; 7 or more is sui generis.
- Mandatory licence for HMOs of 3 or more storeys with 5 or more people in 2 or more households; councils add additional licensing.
Welsh councils set their own HMO standards and may run additional licensing. In Wales, changing a house to a C4 HMO always needs planning permission, so check planning first.
