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.
