We keep the process clear, affordable, and entirely online, so you can qualify without stepping into a classroom.
What Is an Application for a Personal Licence? An application for a personal licence gives you written permission from your local council to authorise alcohol sales. Before applying, you must pass the approved qualification called the BIIAB Level 2 Award for Personal Licence Holders (APLH). This exam demonstrates that you understand licensing rules and responsible retailing practices. At Inn Confidence, we provide everything needed to prepare and pass.
