EPC expiry checker

Enter the date your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) was issued to check whether it is likely to still be within its standard validity period.

Quick answer

An EPC is usually valid for 10 years. Most rental properties need a valid EPC before marketing, and minimum energy-efficiency rules may also apply.

Check the latest GOV.UK guidance before relying on the result.
