How long does it usually take to obtain a permit to sell alcoholic beverages?
The approximate time to obtain a permit is 45-60 days. This time frame can vary dependent on the type of license applied for and the certification required by the local governing authorities in the city and county of the proposed location. It can take longer than 60 days, so it is important begin the application process as early as possible. For assistance with the licensing process, please contact your local TABC office. They can walk you through the process, provide you with the appropriate forms, and answer any questions you might have. For contact information, visit the map on our website.
