Personal Licence & Why Do You Need One?
In the United Kingdom, the Law requires that any alcohol
sales on any licensed premises, be that a pub,
restaurant, off-licence or supermarket, has to be made
or authorised by a Personal licence holder. This means
that no licensed premises can sell alcohol unless
there is a Personal Licence holder present.
To apply for your own Personal Licence you will have
to pass an accredited licensing qualification. So first
you will have to take a 1 day NCPLH/APLH course. There are
about 70 training venues around Britain where we can
book a course for you, so there is usually one in a town near
where you live. You will be sent the booklet that
accompanies the course in advance so you can read up on
it. At the end of this course you will sit a 40 question exam.
To pass you have to get at least 28 answers correct. The
exam is to make sure you understand what you have
been taught on the course.
You can check below to see which course is nearest to you.
Feel you need a hand?
We know that applying for your Personal Licence can
appear a bit of a complicated task but if you want we can
reduce the stress by applying to the Licensing Authorities on
your behalf. We will e-mail or post a
list of questions for you to fill
in and return. We will then fill
out the necessary forms for
you and post them to you, for
you to sign. Then you return
the forms in the pre-paid
envelope supplied along with a
couple of photo's which need
to be signed on the back. We
will use these to apply for your
CRB Certificate.
After we have received
this CRB Certificate and the
Training Certificate to say you
have passed your exam, we will
send all the paperwork off to
your relevant local authority.
They then send us your
personal licence and
Certificates which we then
send on to you. Our friendly
and helpful team are only an
email or phone call away if you
need any help.
The whole process usually
takes between 6 - 8 weeks
and we charge £270 which
includes the training course,
examination, certification,
Personal Licence, CRB and
VAT.
