Premises age verification policy template

All premises that sell alcohol must hold an age verification policy to be adhered to by staff.

The policy must include the following stipulations:

• No alcohol may be sold to an individual under the age of 18 years.
• In order to prevent underage sales, proof of age must be requested before service to anyone who appears under 18.
• The forms of identification that will be acceptable for the purposes of verifying age.
• Who the responsible individuals will be in the event of a breach.
• The possible consequences of a breach.

The premises licence holder should sign this policy to have it on record that they understand the rules.
