How to Obtain a Liquor License in New York?

Any entity that wants to produce, distribute, or sell liquor will need to obtain a mandatory liquor license. To make certain proper regulation of the liquor industry stays intact, each county within New York has developed a license quota. The term of the liquor license is determined by specific municipal, county, state, and Federal regulations. When the term of the liquor license expires, it can be easily renewed.

Before an individual starts a liquor business, he or she will need to perform the the following:

  • They must get in touch with the alcoholic beverage control board in New York to learn what type of license needs to be obtained.
  • They must prepare an application to get the license and have it validated by the necessary people.
  • They must submit an application to the alcoholic beverage control board or the local liquor authority agency.
