It will take quite a lot of time and effort to process all the necessary documents and permits. Therefore, after developing the concept and idea, you should start collecting documentation.
Basic documents:
Registration of the company. It is necessary to choose a classification and choose a legal form in advance. If you register the business as a private person, it will be possible to sell only beer. If it is planned to sell strong alcoholic drinks and cocktails on the territory of the bar, then you should register LLC.
Conclusion of a lease agreement for non-residential premises for the bar. The documents must be drawn up in duplicate, and have the tenant’s and landlord’s stamps.
Registration with the tax service and putting the cash register on record.
Obtaining permits from the fire department (the bar is visited by an inspector, then draws up the appropriate document).
Obtaining permits from the SES.
The contract for the removal of waste.
Sanitary book for personnel.
License to sell alcoholic beverages.
The license can be obtained not only before the opening of the institution – you can get it after the launch of the bar. However, you are faced with the task of reaching a quick payback and profit, so you need to bet on this direction.
For successful licensing, certain conditions must be met:
- The bar must be at least 50 square meters;
- The bar must be located more than 100 meters away from sports, medical and educational institutions;
- The bar must be equipped with all modern communication systems: heating, plumbing, and have safe electrical wiring.
It is not possible to draw up the permits yourself – documents can be handled by specialized organizations on an outsourced basis.
