Personal Licence Course King’s-Lynn

To sell alcohol by retail in King’s-Lynn there needs to be a premises licence for the premises or location where the sales occur and a personal licence for the individual who makes those sales, or authorises other people to sell on his or her behalf.

Typically, therefore a pub, shop or restaurant in King’s-Lynn will have a premises licence authorising the retail sales of alcohol and the person making those sales or authorising staff to sell for him or her will have a personal licence.

Every sale of alcohol by retail must be made by or authorised by a personal licence holder, so each premises with a premises licence requires at least one personal licence holder for the business. An application for a personal licence requires the applicant first to gain the Award for Personal Licence Holders (APLH) qualification in England and Wales.

How can I take the personal licence course in King’s-Lynn?

Traditionally, the BIIAB APLH (Award For Personal Licence Holders) was held (and still is) over a 1 day course, normally in a hotel function room with around 10-30 candidates. This was followed by a paper examination around 4pm, with the exam papers then being posted back to the examination board for marking.

Previously we would have had our results back within around 3 days, although occasionally this could have been nearer 5.

    How do I get my premises licence in King’s-Lynn?

    A premises licence can be applied for by an individual who is 18 or over, a company that operates the business or an organisation such as a charity or educational institution. Once granted, the individual, company or organisation becomes the licence holder with responsibility for the legal operation of the premises.

    Most sales of alcohol are sales of alcohol by retail, regardless of the amount of alcohol purchased, and all sales will therefore require a premises licence and a designated premises supervisor.
