Drawing on over a decade of experience advising on civic licensing in Scotland, and specifically advising clients over the last two years in relation to the new short-term lets licensing scheme, this practical guide looks at the historical context leading to the new licensing scheme, what it means to have a short-term let licence, how to apply for a licence, the interaction between planning law and licensing law, what the regulatory implications of holding a licence are, and what alternative options there might be if you only want to licence a short-term let for a brief (temporary) period of time.This practical guide brings together in one place the relevant provisions of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982, Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 (Licensing of Short-term Lets) Order 2022, non-statutory guidance, and other relevant information so as to be a helpful aide for operators, applicants, practitioners and licensing officers alike. It provides a timeline as to how the Scottish Government reached the stage of requiring short-term lets to be licensed, while also drawing on examples to consider complex issues Kevin has already seen arise as operators and hosts grapple with the new statutory regime.ABOUT THE AUTHORKevin Clancy is a partner and solicitor-advocate at Shepherd and Wedderburn.
