About alcohol and entertainment licences

Changes to a premises licence or club certificate

If you want to make changes to a premises licence, you will need to apply to our licensing service. These changes are known as one of the following:

• A minor variation of the licence
• A full variation of the licence

Which one you need depends on whether the changes will have any impact on the licensing objectives.

If you are unsure which variation suits your needs, please contact Licensing: Licensing contact form

Change of circumstance on a premises licence

If you sell your licensed premises to a new owner then you will need to transfer the licence to them.

If your Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS) that is the personal licence holder who authorises the sale of alcohol at your licensed premises, leaves and has to be replaced, you must apply for a variation of designated supervisor
