HMO rules for Llanelli
- Mains-powered interlinked smoke alarms on every storey, CO alarms where needed, and an electrical test at least every 5 years.
- 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.
- Room sizes and amenity ratios are set by each council: England’s national room sizes do not apply.
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.
