New Zealand law explained for everyone

Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012

Sale and supply of alcohol generally - Licensing generally, requirements on licensees, and conditions - Kinds of licence and their effect

18: Off-licences: sale for delivery and sales at distance

You could also call this:

“Selling alcohol from a shop and delivering it to someone else”

If you have an off-licence that is not endorsed under section 40, you can sell alcohol from the premises and deliver it to another place. You can do this as long as the licence is for those premises. The same rule applies if your off-licence is endorsed under section 40, you can sell alcohol from the premises and deliver it somewhere else. You must make sure the licence is for the premises you are selling from. This means you can sell alcohol and have it delivered to someone who is not at the premises.
