A standard premises licence application typically takes around 28 days from submission, allowing for the statutory consultation period, provided no representations are received. If an application is challenged, it will go to a licensing hearing, which can extend the process by several months.
If a responsible authority or local resident submits a representation against your application, it will be referred to a licensing sub-committee hearing. We can prepare your case, gather supporting evidence, and represent you at the hearing to give your application the best chance of success.
You need a personal licence if you want to authorise the sale of alcohol at a premises, typically held by the designated premises supervisor. The premises itself also needs its own premises licence, which is a separate application.
