Seamless Licence Transfers

Purchasing a licensed business seems simple, but the process presents many obstacles. Transfer forms require signatures from both parties, property owner consent, training documentation, a new RAMP, and criminal history checks.

Interim Authority

Trade immediately from settlement while transfer is processed.

Compliance Check

Review licence conditions to ensure they match your intended operations.

Criminal Checks

Avoid Common Pitfalls

Many buyers discover too late that a business has been operating contrary to its licence conditions or Principal Activity. We review everything before you commit, avoiding compliance action and trade loss.

Common Questions

How long does a transfer take?
A transfer typically takes 10-12 weeks for OLGR to process. However, an Interim Authority enables you to trade from settlement day.
What if the licence has lapsed?
If the licence was cancelled due to non-payment, a transfer is not possible and you would need to apply for a new licence from scratch.
What is Principal Activity?
The primary purpose of your licence - e.g., restaurant, bar, accommodation. Your operations must align with this activity.
