2011 Census for Empty Letting Property And Holiday Homes

Have you got an empty let? Then don’t forget … you need to fill in the census form for that property on Sunday 27th March. This is a legal requirement.

The property owner needs to fill in the form - either the paper version or online - for any unoccupied rented property. The sections that need to be completed are;
H1 (tick the last box in the list)
H4 (tick the last box in the list)
H7 to H11

Do you own a holiday property?

If it has been unoccupied for more than six months - you should not complete the census form

If it has been occupied at any time in the last six months but is not occupied on March 27th you should complete sections H1 to H11, optionally leaving H2, 3 and 6 blank.

If it is occupied on March 27th - you should complete H1, H4, H7 to H11 and then the names of the occupants in the “Visitors” section on the back page 32.

Don’t forget to sign and date the form on the front.
