What information do I need to inform TV Licensing of a death?
When contacting TV Licensing you should have the following to hand:
- You will need the 10-digit number printed on the License, it can also be found on the top-right hand corner of any correspondence that may have been received from them. Also, you should have the full name and address of the deceased.

What happens next?
TV Licensing will begin their process depending upon what you have requested to happen to the account.
