Application for a petroleum storage licence under Petroleum (Consolidation) Acts (Northern Ireland) 1929 and 1937
This service lets you submit a form and its related documentation online.
If you store petroleum you must be licensed by your local authority.
Licences are not required for any petrol kept for private use or for sale that is not more than 570 millilitres per container or totals less than 15 litres.
The fee you will pay depends on the information you supply in your application. Guidance on how to calculate the fee is given in the form and you will pay it online. The fee is the same whether you apply online or by post. Businesslink.gov.uk does not charge you for using this service.
