Process to get license for your liquor business in SA

Are you aware of the process that had to be followed to get license for your liquor business in SA? Even if you don’t know a single thing about it, then too you can get it in an easy way by taking the specialized services of Lion Liquor Licensing Consultants.


The process to get the license for the liquor business in South Australia is not easy. It is a series of steps which includes lodgement, documentation, conciliation hearings and final approval. The process can be explained as under:

1. Lodgement: The first step is to lodge an application for the liquor license. But before you apply for the license it is necessary to know and understand the type of business you are entering into and the license required to sell the alcohol. Don’t stay under the assumption that the one license works for all. The type of license depends on the factors like capacity, hours of operation, car parking, food entertainment noise and public safety.

Accordingly the type of license is determined. The different types of liquor license are special circumstance, club license, residential license, producer’s license, license for retail liquor business, hotel license, license for entertainment venue, and license for limited club, restaurant license, small venue license, license for wholesale liquor business and license for direct sale. The process is confusing and any single mistake can reject your application. So it is better to hire the consultants to get license for your liquor business in SA.

2. Documentation: Once the application is filed then it has to be supported by a number of documents. The different types of documents required are traffic reports, consent letter of council, general notification to public, development & planning approval, landlord consent and ASIC extracts. Failing to submit any mentioned document can create problems in the license process. Also the process requires a number of approvals from the Council, SAPOL or the general public. All the things require time and efforts which can be handled by the expert consultants.

3. Conciliation Hearings is the next step in the process if the application receives any kind of intervention from the Council, SAPOL or the general public. During the conciliation hearings the parties can present their point of views and can fight for their case. Only after the hearing it would be possible for you to get license for your liquor business in SA.

4.  After the conciliation hearing the final approval comes and the license is granted.
