Liquor License - United Kingdom

United Kingdom

Throughout the United Kingdom, the sale of alcohol is only authorized for pubs, restaurants, shops and other premises that are officially licensed by the local authority. The individual responsible for the premises must also hold a personal license. As far as the concern of alcohol, premises licenses can be categorized into two different kinds:

• on-licences : allowing consumption of alcohol on the premises.
• off-licences : alcohol must be removed from the vendor's premises and drunk elsewhere.
