INSTRUCTIONS - DISTILLED SPIRITS TAX RETURN
GENERAL
The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) administers the California Alcoholic Beverage Tax Law (Revenue
and Taxation Code section 32001. et seq.) in cooperation with the Board of Equalization. The law includes the state excise tax on
distilled spirits. The tax rates for this law, as they relate to the sale of distilled spirits, are shown on this return. Report all alcoholic
beverages in wine gallons. To convert liters to wine gallons, multiply the quantity in liters by 0.264172. Round the resulting figure
to the nearest gallon [see Alcoholic Beverage Tax Regulation 2544].
FILING REQUIREMENTS
Every distilled spirits taxpayer shall file a tax return and supplemental reports (if applicable) of all sales of distilled spirits for the
reporting period on or before the fifteenth day of each month, following the close of the reporting period. You must file a return
even if no tax is due for the reporting period. Remittance for the amount due must be submitted by the due date of the return. A
duplicate of the return and supplemental reports (if applicable) should be retained on the licensed premises for verification by
CDTFA auditors.
PENALTY FOR LATE FILING
Section 32252 of the Alcoholic Beverage Tax Law imposes a penalty for the late filing of this return regardless of whether any tax
is due. The penalty for late payment of tax is 10 percent (0.10) of the amount of tax due together with interest on the tax from the
date on which the tax is due and payable until the date of payment. The penalty for the late filing of this return is $50.00. The
penalties imposed will be limited to either $50.00, or 10 percent (0.10) of the amount of tax due, whichever is greater. The CDTFA
is authorized by law, for good cause, to extend the time for the filing of this return not to exceed one month. Any request for an
extension may be submitted online at www.cdtfa.ca.gov.
Payments: To make your payment online, go to our website at www.cdtfa.ca.gov and select Make a Payment. You can also
pay by credit card on our website or by calling 1-855-292-8931. If paying by check or money order, be sure to include your
account number. Make your check or money order payable to California Department of Tax and Fee Administration.
