Message of Importance to All Applicants:
Although the state has 35 days to investigate and review all applications, we would like to assure you that it is our goal to
issue your permit as quickly as possible. Typically, licensing delays are a result of applicants not carefully reading and
completing the application packet or not submitting all required documentation. There are no exceptions to the statutory
requirements to obtain an alcoholic beverage permit. As such, please help us in permitting your business quickly by
ensuring that you have carefully reviewed the application packet and supplied all necessary documentation. Please use
the enclosed checklist and instructions to guide you through the application process and feel free to contact us at the
number above for additional guidance.
Who Must Complete This Application: Any person, corporation, partnership, LLC or other organization shall complete
this application and obtain a permit before selling, offering for sale, serving, storing, handling or otherwise engaging in
any business transaction related to alcoholic beverages. Note: Louisiana issues permits per location; thus a separate
alcoholic beverage application (with a separate address) and permit is required for each “place of business.”

A Note from the Louisiana Office of Alcohol & Tobacco Control
As the agency tasked with regulating alcoholic beverage and tobacco commodities, one
of our main goals here at ATC is to promote awareness and understanding throughout the
industry of the Alcoholic Beverage and Tobacco Laws and Regulations. As such, we feel that it
may be helpful to provide you with a few commonly un-known or misunderstood provisions of
law. Please read the following.
Licensed Louisiana retail dealers of alcohol and tobacco products can only purchase their
inventory from licensed Louisiana wholesale dealers.
6% price mark-up provisions apply to alcohol and tobacco products.
Permits are issued per location address and only one alcoholic beverage permit can be
issued to an address (i.e. you cannot have two classes of permits at one address).
Public habitable area means publicly accessible space, within a structure, which is
permanent in nature, is in compliance with applicable building codes, is fully enclosed
and climate controlled.
Employees selling or serving alcoholic beverage and tobacco products must obtain a
Responsible Vendor Certification within 45 days of employment.
Retail dealers are required to maintain alcoholic beverage and tobacco invoices as well as
employee records on the licensed premise at all times.
Managers must be registered and certified by ATC. It is important to supply a Schedule A
on all appointed managers.
ATC is authorized to accept documentation and provide information to anyone registered
with a business. As such, it is imperative, for the safety your business information, to
maintain current ownership and management records with ATC.
Smoking is not allowed on any areas of a Class B, C (package stores), or AR premise
(restaurant).
Placing signs provided by wholesalers/suppliers outside your business is prohibited (this
also includes utility items such as table umbrellas).
The sale of single cigarettes is prohibited.
A complete copy of the Alcoholic Beverage and Tobacco laws and regulations can be
downloaded from the ATC website at www.atc.la.gov
. We are always happy to assist you with
any questions or concerns at (225)925-4041. Additionally, we encourage you to help us promote
responsible business practices by reporting violations of the alcoholic beverage and tobacco laws
to our complaint line at (225)925-4070.
