Apply for primary service authorisation

Introduction

If you want to supply or serve alcohol at your premises to customers who are not using or consuming your other products or services (for example food or accommodation), you need to apply for a primary service authorisation (PSA).

You can apply for a PSA if you already have an existing on-premises liquor licence or if you are applying for a on-premises liquor licence. 

What you need

• a Statement of Risks and Potential Effects (SoRPE)
• licence and licensee details
• applicant details
• a floor plan showing the boundaries of the premises
• the PDF form – 'Primary service authorisation'
• the fee payment.
