Age Verification Policy (Challenge 25)
Booze Express Luton is committed to selling and delivering alcohol responsibly.
We follow the Challenge 25 age verification rule to ensure all customers are legally eligible to purchase alcohol and age-restricted products. Please read our policy below before placing an order.
Understanding Our Age Policy
Booze Express Luton operates under UK licensing laws and must ensure that alcohol and age-restricted products are only supplied to customers aged 18 or over. To comply with the law and protect our community, we strictly follow the Challenge 25 policy for all alcohol sales and deliveries.
Challenge 25 – What It Means
If you look under 25, our delivery driver will ask for a valid photo ID to confirm you are at least 18 years old.
This applies to every order, including repeat customers.
This policy helps prevent underage sales and ensures we meet all legal requirements for off-licence alcohol delivery.
Accepted Forms of ID
You must provide one of the following valid documents:
UK photocard driving licence
Valid passport
PASS-approved ID card (CitizenCard, MyID, etc.)
Home Office-approved immigration status document with photo
Digital copies, screenshots, or photocopies cannot be accepted.
Age Verification on Delivery
To complete your order, you must:
Be present at the delivery address
Show a valid original ID if requested
Ensure the person receiving the order is 18 or over
If no valid ID is provided, the driver is legally required to refuse delivery, and no refund will be issued for opened or perishable items.
Refusal of Sale
Our staff and drivers will refuse a sale if:
You cannot provide a valid ID when requested
The ID appears fake, altered, or invalid
The person collecting appears intoxicated
The order is intended for someone under 18
These rules are part of UK licensing laws and apply to all off-licence businesses.
Customer Responsibility
By ordering from Booze Express Luton, you agree that:
You are 18 or over
You will not provide alcohol to minors
You will comply with age-verification checks
You understand that delivery cannot be completed without a valid ID
Failure to meet these requirements will result in the refusal of service.
Why This Matters
This policy helps us:
Prevent underage drinking
Follow UK licensing regulations
Keep our community safe
Maintain responsible alcohol delivery standards
At Booze Express Luton, we take compliance seriously and appreciate your understanding.
