I want to apply for a club premises certificate

Application

A certificate is required to allow "Qualifying Clubs" to supply alcohol and other qualifying activities from the premises for members and their guests.

To apply for a premises licence you will need to complete the two forms below:

• Club premises certificate application form
• Declaration for a club premises certificate form

Once you have completed these forms you will need to send them to us. You can do this by scanning the two forms and emailing them to us. Or you can post them to us at:

Licencing Department
Hastings Borough Council
Muriel Matters House
Breeds Place
Hastings
East Sussex

Consultation

Every club premises certificate application is subject to a consultation period of 28 days. As part of this process you need to send a copy of your application to each of the other responsible authorities.

You also need to advertise your application on the site of the premises and in a local paper. You can find out more about why you need to do this and how to do it on our consultation page.

Fees

The cost of your licence will depend on a number of factors including the size of the premise. Find out how much your licence will cost.

The application process will take up to 8 weeks to complete.
