Settlement checking service - England

Settlement checking service

This page provides details of the local authorities in England offering a checking service for settlement applications. This list does not include local authorities in Greater London.

The list is alphabetical by the name of the local authority providing the service. Some local authorities have more than one office providing the checking service. To find your nearest one, look for the name of a town or city in your area, or for your county.

You should contact the local authority you wish to visit to arrange an appointment before you travel to its offices. All the information on this page has been provided to us by the local authorities. If you find any information that is incorrect please let us know.

For further information on the settlement checking service and what it offers, please see the Settlement checking service page.
