Your eLicense account is your key to managing your permit.
It is your responsibility to make sure your contact information in your eLicense profile is up to date. We will use your email address and phone number in eLicense to communicate with you about your permit. For example, we send annual renewal reminders to your email address listed in eLicense.
You can perform a variety of tasks on your eLicense portal.
Account Maintenance
- Change Username: We assign a randomly generated username, but you can set a new one.
- Reset Password: You may change your password or you can recover your password.
- Recover Password and Username: If you forgot your username or password, you can have it reset with information sent to the email address on file.
- Update Contact Information: Update your main email used to receive all notices about your permit.
All Permits
- Apply: Use your existing account to apply for other liquor permits or other licenses issued by the Department of Consumer Protection. We may be able to import saved information form other applications.
- Backer Representative Updates: You can add or terminate a backer representative. (A backer representative is a person hired by an applicant to assist with the application process, like a lawyer or consultant.)
- Cancel Your Permit: You may cancel your permit with immediate effect.
- Donate Alcohol: All permits may donate to the holder of a temporary charitable permit with Liquor Control permission. Submit donation requests through eLicense.
- Renew: Your annual renewal must be done online through the eLicense portal. You may also watch a video.
- Trade Name Updates: You may update your trade name at any time; not to be used if a new backer or entirely new business is taking over.
Manufacturer, Shipper, & Wholesaler Permits
- Returns: Submit all product return requests.
- Closeouts, Depletion Allowances, Floor Stock Allowances, Sweepstakes, Value Added Packaging, and Manufacturer Rebates: Portals exist to submit the necessary information required for each one of these approvals.
- THC Can Payment: The January 1 and July 1 payment must be submitted through eLicense. The portal will be live only at those times. Monitor your email on file for reminders and information on accessing the portal.
Club Permits
- Guest Book Waiver: While club permittees must always keep an active guest book, Liquor Control can give permission to waive the guest book for special events. Submit the waiver through the guest book portal.
Caterer Permits and Restaurant Permits
- Catering Notification: All off-premises caterers and any restaurant permittee catering off their permit premises must submit notifications to Liquor Control when catering functions.
