How to apply

Apply for a licence

It is an offence for anyone to sell venison unless they are a licensed venison dealer.

Estates that cull deer and sell the carcasses to either the public or to retail shops will need to apply. The only circumstances in which an estate would not require to have a licence would be if the animals were being killed for private consumption on the estate.

If you are not granted a licence, we can give you a statement of the reasons for our decision. You have a right of appeal to the Sheriff Court.
