A Personal Licence allows an individual to sell or authorise the sale of alcohol in accordance with the times and conditions stated on a Premises Licence or Temporary Event Notice. Applicants can only hold one Personal Licence which has no expiry date and remains with that person if they move premises. This must be issued by the local authority where the applicant lives.
