Services
Whatever your licensing requirement, our consultants have handled it before. Choose the service you need, or call us and we will point you to the right one.
New Licence Applications
Whether you are taking over an existing business or setting up a new venture, we prepare the application, draft the operating schedule and manage the 28-day consultation from start to finish.
Premises Licence Variations
Change your hours, activities, conditions or licensed layout. We assess the licence, recommend the right route, prepare the application and support you at a hearing.
Change a Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS)
Complete Licensing prepares the DPS change application, obtains the necessary consents and manages the process with the licensing authority and the police.
Premises Licence Expert Witness Reports and Hearing Evidence
Independent expert evidence for contested licensing hearings — reports, data analysis, observations and oral evidence for applications, variations, reviews and appeals.
Festival Licensing
When planning a music festival, food and drink festival, community event or a large outdoor event, you may need a festival licence to authorise alcohol sales, regulated entertainment or late-night refreshment.
Premises Licence Services for Commercial Landlords
Protect the licensing position of your commercial property with specialist support for premises licence ownership, transfers, tenant changes, shadow licences and unexpected disruption.
Licensing Preservation in Insolvency
As soon as you contact us about an insolvency licence issue, we'll begin the process that ensures your licence remains valid and legal.
Ongoing Licensing Compliance Services for Licensed Premises
Protect your premises licence with professional compliance inspections, audits, incident reviews, staff training and ongoing support.
Licensed Premises Policies and Procedures
Bespoke policy drafting, review and implementation — documents your managers, bar staff and security teams can actually follow during a live shift.
Premises Licence Reviews
A premises licence review can cost you trading hours, alcohol sales, your DPS or the licence itself. Our premises licence review consultants assess the case, prepare the evidence and represent you at the sub-committee hearing.
Licensing Crisis Management for Licensed Premises
Complete Licensing provides support when a serious incident, police action or licensing enforcement threatens your premises licence and puts your business at risk.
Sexual Entertainment Venue Licensing (SEV)
Sexual entertainment venues are licensed separately from the Licensing Act 2003, under a regime where local policy decides most outcomes. We assess your position before you commit.
Temporary Event Notice Applications (TENs)
A Temporary Event Notice can authorise licensable activities for a one-off event, extended hours or an additional activity. The deadlines are strict and unforgiving, so the earlier you talk to us the better.
Gambling Licence Application and Compliance Support
Independent support with gambling licence applications, changes to existing permissions, regulatory engagement and hearing preparation.
Late Night Refreshment Licence Applications
Independent help identifying the correct permission, preparing a properly evidenced application and responding to local-authority concerns about late-night hot food and drink.
