What needs to be within a Report?
As part of the UK Entry Clearance requirements, the UK Border Agency requires an assessment of the intended accommodation prior to arrival to the UK. Such an assessment should be undertaken by a qualified body and a report/certificate is issued to indicate if the property will become overcrowded within the definition of the Housing Act 1985 and will not contravene public health regulations. We are building and property experts, we satisfy the UK Border Agency’s requirements as a qualified body (insured) to prepare a comprehensive report confirming the status of the proposed accommodation’s housing standards.
