It is a complicated, expensive, and time-consuming process. If you are missing any one piece of information, your application will be put on hold until you can re-submit the application. The process is worth it as liquor sale profit margins are so high. Let ABC Consulting help you get started on your application as most of the obstacles associated with obtaining a liquor license are bureaucratic. As part of the process, for instance, you\u2019ll need to explain what type of establishment you operate (restaurant, bar, hotel), if you\u2019ll let customers bring their own alcohol (BYOB), the hours and days you will sell alcohol, and if you will be manufacturing alcohol on the premises. Then, based on your answers, we\u2019ll figure out what kind of liquor license you need. We can help you get all the pieces and parts of your application together. For instance, you\u2019ll need your EIN (Employer Identification Number), business license, sales tax permit, health permit and even building and zoning permits (building and zoning permits determine if your business is in a location and facility where it is legal to sell alcohol). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/vaabc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/restaurant-toast-1200x600.jpg\" alt=\"ABC Consulting - your alcohol, beverage-industry experts! \" class=\"wp-image-12504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vaabc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/restaurant-toast.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/vaabc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/restaurant-toast-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vaabc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/restaurant-toast-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vaabc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/restaurant-toast-600x300.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption>ABC Consulting &#8211; your alcohol, beverage-industry experts! <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>NOW that you gathered all that information, let\u2019s make sure that the application gets filed and is complete and correct.&nbsp; We\u2019ll verify all the answers to determine if the information you provided on your application is accurate and resolve any issues that may be raised. &nbsp;All of our consultants are retired ABC Agents that are very familiar with compliance issues, legal issues, and concerns that you have never even thought of.
