Glasgow Holiday Let Licensing — What You Need

Scotland operates its own Short-Term Let licensing scheme under the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 (as amended). All hosts in Scotland are required to hold a valid licence to operate a short-term let, with fire safety compliance — including a written fire risk assessment — forming part of the mandatory licence conditions. The local licensing authority for Glasgow is Glasgow City Council.

  • Glasgow City Council is the licensing authority for Glasgow short-term lets
  • A valid STL licence is required before accepting paying guests in Scotland
  • Fire safety conditions — including a FRA — are mandatory licence requirements
  • RRO 2005 fire risk assessment obligations apply independently of the licensing scheme
  • FRASafe produces a written FRA aligned with the RRO 2005 for licence compliance

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a fire risk assessment for my Glasgow holiday let?

Yes. Scotland's STL Licensing Scheme requires all hosts to hold a valid licence, with fire safety compliance — including a written FRA — as a mandatory licence condition. The RRO 2005 also applies independently, requiring a written fire risk assessment for any premises where guests pay to stay.

Who administers short-term let licensing in Glasgow?

Glasgow City Council is the licensing authority for Glasgow short-term lets. You must apply for and hold a valid licence before accepting paying guests. Fire safety documentation, including a written FRA, is required as part of the licence application.

How is a holiday let FRA different from a residential FRA?

Holiday let FRAs must account for transient guests who are unfamiliar with the property and escape routes. FRASafe's holiday let questionnaire includes a dedicated Guest Safety Management module covering fire action notices in bedrooms, guest information packs, and emergency exit clarity.

How much does a holiday let fire risk assessment cost in Glasgow?

Fire risk assessment consultants in Glasgow typically charge £110–£300 for a holiday let. FRASafe produces a complete, legally compliant PDF report for £45 — significantly less than an on-site consultant.
