If you are submitting a new application, please refer to the Quick Reference Guides section of this page.
If you had an application that was previously not approved, the new application will have to meet the requirements in the new regulations.
If you have a scheme that is already approved, it will be carried over and considered as being approved under the new regulations.
If your evacuation scheme was approved before 1 July 2018, it is important to note that the reporting of trial evacuations and training programmes have changed. You no longer have to give us 10 days notice of a trial evacuation and there are additional questions to answer when reporting the results of trial evacuations; please check the link ‘Maintain your approved evacuation scheme’ in the Quick Reference Guides for more information.
