How to Apply for a Temporary Liquor License (Temporary Permits)
If you need to know how to apply for a temporary liquor license, you're looking to sell liquor as soon as you can.
However, the process to apply for a temporary liquor license doesn't make it quick or easy to get approved and start selling. The temporary liquor license application is confusing and very detailed. Even what seems like a straightforward, minor part of an application can cause an application to be rejected by the State Liquor Authority.
A temporary liquor license application also requires a huge amount of supporting documents and evidence, including relevant photos of where you want to sell liquor, copies of contracts, and documents that prove that you're not in violation of existing liquor laws.
