Personal licence
To supply alcohol or authorise the sale of alcohol within licensed premises in England and Wales you must have a personal licence.
Before you apply
Read the relevant sections of the Licensing Act 2003 Statement of Licensing Policy.
Before you can apply for a personal licence you must get an accredited licensing qualification. The aim of the qualification is to ensure that licence holders are aware of the licensing law and the wider social responsibilities involved in the sale of alcohol.
