Age-restricted sales and proof of your age
You need to be 16 or 18 years old to buy some products, and 12, 15 or 18 to buy some films and computer games.
Find a list of age-restricted products in our Guidance for traders on underage sales
Report a trader for underage sales
If you're concerned a local trader is selling to underage customers, contact the Citizens Advice Consumer Service.
Volunteer to test underage sales
We carry out work with underage volunteers to ensure goods aren't sold to anyone under the age limit.
To volunteer, email us at tradingstandards@royalgreenwich.gov.uk.
