Applying for a licence
You must submit the application at least 35 days either before you start operating or the licence is due for renewal.
Please enclose copies of certificates for all staff for any new applications and any new members of staff for renewal applications.
This renewable licence will generally last for 12 months.
It may sometimes be necessary to grant licences for longer or shorter periods (up to the statutory maximum of 18 months) to bring premises into the right renewal period.
