Payment of Annual Fees for Premises Licences
Annual fees are payable by 1 October each year by all premises licence holders.
The Board will issue reminders to all premises licence holders regarding the annual fee and therefore it is important that licence holders' addresses are kept up to date.
The annual fee is calculated based on the rateable value of the premises. Details of fees Liquor Licence Fees [35KB]
