Apply for an After-Midnight Alcohol Sales Permit

Step 1.Gather your Information

Before you apply, you should know the rules about selling alcoholic drinks after midnight, and follow safety guidelines like police protection and monitoring occupancy. You should also notify the property owner of any legal steps needed. Read the After Midnight Alcohol Sales Permit Procedure before you apply for your permit.

Step 2.Submit your permit application

On the form, you can apply for a new permit, renew the one you have, or change information like responsible persons or business owners. This helps make sure your permit is right and up-to-date.

You must display the decal near the main entrance of the business so that it is easily visible from outside the establishment.
