Liquor licensing

Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation issues all Liquor Licences.

On 1 July 2025, the requirement for a planning permit for a liquor licence was removed from all planning schemes in Victoria by the Minister for Planning via Planning Scheme Amendment VC286. 

To apply for a liquor licence, please contact Liquor Control Victoria.


Letter from Council

Should Liquor Control Victoria require a letter from council to confirm that a Planning Permit is not required, you can apply for a planning information request.
