Licence types explained

On licence

An on-premise licence is required where alcohol will be consumed on the premises. The licence may include all or part of the premises and could be a restaurant, tavern, hotel, function centre, cafe or entertainment venue.

Off licence

An off-premise licence allows a licensee to sell alcohol that will be consumed somewhere else. Free samples can be supplied for consumption on the premises. Grocery stores and supermarkets may also have an off licence provided they are outside the Invercargill Licensing Trust area (refer to Invercargill Maps).

Club licence

Club licences allow sporting or recreational venues, a body corporate whose object is not for profit and permanent club charters to serve alcohol to a member of the club, a guest of the member, or a person who is a member of a club that has reciprocal visiting rights.
