We do not licence petrol stations. However, our Trading Standards service can help if you are concerned about petrol stations whose pumps may calculate amounts of petrol and/or prices incorrectly.

The keeping of petrol must meet the conditions attached to a licence issued under the Petroleum (Consolidation) Act 1928. When a licensed inspector visits a petrol filling station, the aim is to ensure standards are observed, and, where necessary, improved.
