New digital service for alcohol licence applications

Published 21 Nov 2022

Applying for an alcohol licence is now much easier. Business Connect is a new digital service that makes alcohol licence applications simple and more efficient. You can apply for an on/off/club/special and temporary alcohol licence. It can also be used by businesses to apply for a food licence.

Business Connect’s design means that applications are fully completed online,
resulting in less back and forth with  Council. The new process is outlined on our website here.

We understand that digital forms aren’t for everyone and therefore, you can still fill in a physical form and hand it into our customer services team, or scan and send it to  info@tararuadc.govt.nz.
