    Calling time on liquor licence renewal

    The period for the renewal of liquor licenses in the Eastern Cape is drawing closer and Eastern Cape Liquor Board (ECLB) urges liquor traders to adhere to time frames. 

    The period for the renewal of liquor licenses in the Eastern Cape is drawing closer and Eastern Cape Liquor Board (ECLB) urges liquor traders to adhere to time frames. 

    Liquor traders are obligated by law to renew their liquor licenses annually.

    The renewal period is from October 1 to December 31 of each year, and those who miss this deadline can still renew their licenses in the months of January and February of the following year.

    However, those who renew in January are charged a 50 percent late registration fee and those who register in February are charged 100 percent. 

    The implication for those liquor traders who fail to renew their licenses by 28 February is that their liquor outlets will be de-registered and should they wish to trade again, they will be expected to undergo the same process of attaining a liquor license.  

    It is important to note that those who continue to trade with invalid licenses will be contravening the law, and necessary steps will be taken – 6 969 active licensees are expected to renew their licenses.  

    The failure to renew licenses has a debilitating effect on ECLB’s fight against the mushrooming illegal taverns in the province as the majority of these liquor traders revert to illegal trading. 

    To avoid de-registration of their liquor licenses, traders must ensure that they renew their licenses so they can remain valid for the next financial year. 

    ECLB thanks those liquor traders who have ensured that they comply with the conditions and promptly renewed their liquor licenses.
