The\nfirst decision that you need to make is what kind of alcohol license type you\u2019ll\nuse. If you are planning on opening a restaurant, a convenience store, a wine\nshop, a gourmet shop, a brewery or a winery, you\u2019ll still need to understand the\ndifferent types of licenses available and design your business with that\nlicense type in mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>If you would like to schedule a consultation <a href=\"https:\/\/vaabc.com\/\">call,<\/a> we\u2019ll be happy to sit down and discuss the different types<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Choose\nwhat type of license you\u2019re building your business around<\/li><li>You\u2019ll\nnext choose a location, by purchasing or leasing, because you\u2019ll need that\naddress for the alcohol application. <\/li><li>Register\nyour entity with the Virginia State Corporation Commission (Virginia SCC).<\/li><li>After\nthat, you\u2019ll register for the Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN). <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Can register entity or FEIN, <a href=\"https:\/\/vaabc.com\/apply-online\/va-company-formation\">directly on our website<\/a>, by selecting Company Formation, Trade Name Registration or FEIN. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Once you have these registered, you can apply for a Virginia ABC License. The process varies in time and there is a 30-day objection period (tune into this video for the most common mistakes, when applying for an ABC License). <\/li><li>Your application is then sent to Virginia ABC Authority Richmond headquarters. Once approved to the Richmond level, the license application will be sent to one of 9 regions in the state of Virginia. The investigating agent, assigned to your application, will do a thorough investigation and submit it to their supervisor for approval. Once the supervisor has reviewed the application, an on-site inspection will take place (to learn to prepare for your on-site inspection, you can take training on our TOAST Academy site, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toastalcohol.com\/\">here<\/a>. There is an online certification course, which is certified by the Virginia ABC Authority).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Please subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCjRMye0r6bA09lCMLHt2QvA\">YouTube Channel <\/a>for the most common discussions and mistakes relating to Alcohol Licensing in the state of Virginia.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><em>*Disclaimer: The information provided on this website does not, and is not intended to, constitute legal advice; instead, all information, content, and materials available on this site are for general informational purposes only.\u00a0 Information on this website may not constitute the most up-to-date legal or other information.\u00a0 This website contains links to other third-party websites.\u00a0 Such links are only for the convenience of the reader, user, or browser; ABC Consulting VA, LLC does not recommend or endorse the contents of the third-party sites.
