Liquor License Compliance
Before you are able to sell alcohol, you need to obtain a retail license from the South Carolina Department of Revenue (SCDOR). After you get this retail license, you can then apply to sell alcohol. But there are different licenses depending on what you want to sell. When meeting with you, we may ask what types of alcohol you plan to sell and in what ways you are offering them to the public. For instance, certain licenses allow for consumption on-site, and others allow for sales where consumption is taken off-site. If you aren’t sure which license you need based on how you plan to sell alcohol, then contact us today to ensure Liquor License Compliance!
Normally, it takes between 6-8 weeks for an alcohol license application to be processed. You mustpass the necessary site inspections and background checks, post your public notice in the newspaper for no less than 15 days, complete all the required forms, and provide all the requested documentation. However, there can be delays that interfere with this process, such as errors on the paperwork or public protests that result in hearings. However, we have dealt with issues like these and can help you get past them with minimal impact on your business. For more details on what we can do for you, schedule a consultation at your earliest convenience!
