Premises Licence Application

Expert guidance through the UK licensing process — from application to approval

What is a Premises Licence?

Under the Licensing Act 2003, any business wishing to sell or supply alcohol, provide late-night hot food and drink (between 11pm–5am), or offer public entertainment must hold a valid premises licence granted by their local licensing authority.

Applying for a premises licence can be a complex and time-sensitive process. Alpha Hygiene Centre guides you through every step — from preparing your application to ensuring full compliance with local authority requirements.
