Jersey government launches public consultation on proposed alcohol licensing fees

Overview

The Government of Jersey has opened a consultation regarding new alcohol licensing fees ahead of the Alcohol Licensing (Jersey) Law 2026 coming into effect in 2027. The proposed changes aim to create greater parity between on-licence and off-licence fees, replacing the existing fee structure with a revised model.

Key points

  • A consultation on proposed alcohol licensing fees has been launched in Jersey, closing on 6 November.
  • The new fees precede the Alcohol Licensing (Jersey) Law 2026, which is scheduled to take effect in 2027 following approval by States Members in March.
  • The proposed model establishes three principal licence categories: on-licences, off-licences, and event licences.
  • Proposed fees include £550 for an on-licence, £550 for a large off-licence, and £200 for a small off-licence, using a 50m² total floor space threshold to distinguish between them.
