The Personal Licence allows holders to authorise the sale of alcohol at licensed premises. The Personal Licence is typically for those who work in the hospitality industry, like bar staff and event managers.

Why do I need a Licence?
You need a personal licence to authorise the sale or supply of alcohol under The Licensing Act 2003.
How can I get my Personal Licence?
To get your personal licence, the first step is to attend and pass the 1-day personal licence course. Once you pass and receive your certificate, you can apply via your local licensing authority (which is usually your local council).
How is the Licence assessed?
At the end of the course, you’ll sit a 40-question multiple-choice exam. The questions go over all the knowledge you learned in the course.
When will I receive my certificate?
Certificates are dispatched within a week after you successfully finish your course. They’re sent via Royal Mail. We aim to post your certificate within 2 days after receiving it from your training provider.
We will send you an email once we have dispatched your certificate. If you opted for Secured Delivery, your certificate will be posted with a service requiring your signature
Do I need a licence for temporary work?
No. If you’re arranging a temporary event, such as a festival, and there’ll be alcohol sold and regulated entertainment happening, you need to apply for a Temporary Event Notice (also commonly referred to as a TEN).
To find out more about authorising the sale of alcohol without a Personal Licence during a temporary event, please contact your local council.
