Liquor Licence

Liquor Licence

According to Singapore law, all companies or individuals who wish to import, wholesale or retail liquor are required to obtain the relevant licence or permit.

As liquor is a strictly regulated product, a liquor licence needs to be filed with the Singapore Police Force.

Each licence has its own restrictions, such as the method of sale (wholesale, retail), the place of sale, the hours during which the sale is permitted, and so on.

If you violate the relevant regulations, the following penalties may apply:

  • Fines not exceeding $ 20,000;
  • Imprisonment not exceeding 3 months;
  • In cases of repeated offences, both the above may apply.

 

Conditions for applying for a liquor licence:

  1. A suitable person (i.e. no criminal record)
  2. Singapore citizen, Singapore permanent resident or holds a valid work permit or employment permit
  3. If you are applying on behalf of a society registered with the Society Registry (ROS), you must have at least one committee member
