Scotland - Annual Licence Fee Payments

Just a timely and hopefully friendly reminder that annual fees will fall due on the 3^rd October for all Scottish premises licences (this is due to the fact that 1^st October is a Saturday).

A demand for payment of the annual fee from the Board should now have been received by all premises as the law requires such a demand to be given no later than 30 days before the date on which the fee is due.

Even if you have not yet received the demand it is a mandatory condition of every premises licence to pay an annual fee.  Failure to pay the annual fee would therefore constitute a breach of condition and may be grounds for Review of your licence.  So better safe than sorry!
