Personal licence

Your application must include:

• a disclosure of convictions and declaration form - GOV.UK
• 2 passport photos signed by an approved professional
• a criminal conviction certificate issued less than one month before applying for your personal licence – request a basic DBS check on GOV.UK
• a copy of your accredited course certificate - Accredited qualification providers: personal licence to sell alcohol on GOV.UK
• proof of right to work in the UK

When submitting evidence of your right to work in the UK, this would normally be a photocopy of your UK passport. If you do not have a passport, there is a selection of other documents that will be accepted.
