Occasional Liquor License, Temporary Liquor License or Special Events Liquor License.
In line with GAUTENG LIQUOR ACT 2 OF 2003. By Law, a function with a cash bar service requires a Occasional Liquor License or Temporary Liquor License. The venue must either have a valid license or you must arrange an Occasional Liquor License, otherwise known as a Temporary Liquor License. This license is valid for 7 days and costs roughly R5,500.00
Occasional Liquor License (Temporary License)
Our advice – For events over 300 people – we would advise our clients to obtain a liquor license as this is the breakeven point for the costs of the license. If your guest list is below – you have two options:
- The costs associated with obtaining the license, its recommended that you use that to purchase stock,
- Collect a value per person at the entrance and use that to serve drinks.
Any person or entity, who intends to sell liquor at a special occasion or event, for a short time period must apply for a Temporary / Occasional Liquor License.
You will need the following information for an Occasional License Application:
- The name, registration number and registered office or other address of the prospective applicant of the license;
- Letter instructing that your Liquor License Application Consultant, (Power of Attorney) has the authority to apply for your license on your behalf.
