Liquor licence holders must pay an annual fee. Consumer and Business Services (CBS) will send an invoice each year, which must be paid by 30 June.
If you don’t pay your annual fee by the due date your licence may be suspended and may then be revoked.
Use the fee calculator to calculate your annual licensing fees.
