Tabc License

Applications for alcoholic beverage licenses are available from the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC), P.O. Box 13127, Austin, Texas 78711. Local offices of the TABC can be found on the TABC website. The application for a new license will instruct you on where to go to get the application processed. When you have received an application for a renewal beer license from TABC, bring it to the Harris County Tax Office at 1001 Preston, Room 100, Houston, Texas 77002. If you have proper identification and are the owner listed on the application, a deputy in our office will notarize your application. The Tax Office will issue a temporary receipt that must remain in public view on your premises until you receive your permanent license from TABC. The fees shown on the application are State of Texas fees only. You will also have to pay Harris County fees (which are one-half of the State fee) and, when appropriate, a renewal fee of $2.00.

Applications can be processed by mail as long as the form is completely filled out, all copies are signed by the owner, and all copies are notarized. Payment can be made by cash or check. Renewals by mail should be addressed to Don Sumners, Tax Assessor-Collector, P.O. Box 4663, Houston, TX 77210-4663 . Please telephone our office at (713) 368-2000 should you have any questions concerning the permit/license process.

Renewals of beer licenses can be processed through the mail. Write to Don Sumners, Tax Assessor-Collector, P.O. Box 4663, Houston, TX 77210-4663. Renewals for beer and wine licenses can also be processed in person if you go to our downtown office, located at 1001 Preston, 1st Floor.

Beer licenses cannot be renewed earlier than 30 days before the renewal date. If you fail to renew your license on time, but apply for renewal between the first and the 30th day after the renewal, a late fee of $100.00 will be added. If you fail to renew your license on time, and let more than 30 days go by after the renewal date, you will be required to do the following:

cease selling beer
refile with TABC

When you mail the renewal for a liquor license to TABC, you should also contact the Harris County Tax Office to pay the appropriate fee for the Harris County Liquor Control Permit. This fee is always one-half of the state fee. Renewals for the Harris County permit can also be processed by mail, or done at the downtown location.
