Requirement to display liquor licence details
Once your application for a Queensland liquor licence is approved you'll be issued with a licence document. Your licence contains the following information:
- name and licence number of the premises
- licensee name
- address of the premises
- licensed area description
- permitted trading hours
- trading conditions.

You must keep your licence on the licensed premises and, if requested, present it to any Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation (OLGR) compliance officer or a police officer who inspects your premises.
If your licence document is destroyed or misplaced, you must apply for a replacement licence and pay the relevant fee.
Details you must display on premises
Licensees must display a sign containing the following details on a conspicuous part of the premises, in letters at least 15mm high:
- name of licensee
- name of premises
- nature of the business (e.g. restaurant, hotel, club)
- permitted trading hours, including any approved extended trading hours.
This is a requirement of the Liquor Act 1992.
