Compliance / Broker licensing
Broker licensing, state by state
Whether an independent commission broker — someone who solicits orders for a producer and takes no title to the product — needs a personal state licence to sell spirits to the trade. Each answer rests on the statute or rule named under it, read in full rather than summarised.
This covers spirits, and the seat of an independent agent rather than an employed salesperson. Beer and wine often answer differently in the same state. It is research, not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for asking the state — several of the pages below say which regulator to ask.
Not open to an independent broker
2 statesThese states license the seat only for an employee of the producer or distributor whose products are being sold. There is no licence here for a commission broker to apply for.
Indiana licenses this seat only for an employee, not for an independent commission broker — so there is nothing here for you to apply for.
Indiana issues the salesman's permit only to a bona fide employee of an Alcohol and Tobacco Commission wholesale, primary source, distiller, rectifier, vintner or brewery permit holder, so an independent commission broker cannot hold one — and the duty is written broadly enough to catch you anyway: "no person shall act as the agent or salesman for the sale of or taking or soliciting of orders for" alcoholic beverages without the permit. A producer's salesman also may not solicit retail-level sales at all. ⚠️ Two sentences in the same subsection do sit awkwardly with a flat employee-only reading, and they are worth putting to the Commission rather than taking our word for it: "If such salesman is acting for himself as principal, the application and the permit shall so state", and "Additional permits may be granted the same salesman for additional principals, and a salesman may hold more than one (1) salesman's permit at any one (1) time" — language that contemplates an agent with several suppliers rather than one employer. The eligibility clause is the operative one and it is explicit, which is why this state is recorded as closed; but if Indiana matters to you, ask the Alcohol and Tobacco Commission whether that residual language still admits a contracted representative.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.

West Virginia licenses this seat only for an employee, not for an independent commission broker — so there is nothing here for you to apply for.
West Virginia licenses only salaried employees of the distillery, manufacturer, producer or processor, and bars outright anyone who sells on a fee or commission basis. A licensed representative also may not split their salary with anyone outside their immediate family, so there is no route in for an outside broker.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on W. Va. Code § 60-4-22(a). Penalty: W. Va. Code § 60-4-22(e).
Residents and in-state businesses only
5 statesA licence exists and is required, but only a resident — or a business that qualifies there — is eligible to hold it. What counts as qualifying differs by state; each card says.
Massachusetts requires an Agent, Broker or Solicitor License (c. 138, § 18A) before you can solicit orders from licensed wholesalers. Only a Massachusetts resident, or a business that qualifies there, can hold it.
Massachusetts issues the § 18A agent, broker or solicitor licence to an individual only if they are both a citizen and a resident of the Commonwealth — but an out-of-state corporation admitted to do business in Massachusetts, or a Massachusetts LLC or LLP, can hold it instead. Calling on retail accounts additionally needs a § 19A salesman permit, which is employment-tied and open only to Massachusetts citizens.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on M.G.L. c. 138, § 18A. Penalty: M.G.L. c. 138, § 2.
Montana requires a Registered Liquor Vendor Representative (MCA § 16-3-103(1)(a), with § 16-3-107) before you can present and promote products to the state. Only a Montana resident, or a business that qualifies there, can hold it.
Montana requires a vendor representative to be a Montana resident, or to become one after engagement, and to be at least 21. Where representatives are engaged through an independent contractor a vendor is limited to five of them; the unlimited allowance applies only to a distillery’s own employees, owners and officers.
Rests on MCA § 16-3-103(1)(a), with § 16-3-107. Penalty: MCA § 16-6-314.
New Hampshire requires a Liquor and Wine Representative License (RSA 178:10, I) before you can solicit orders there. Only a New Hampshire resident, or a business that qualifies there, can hold it.
New Hampshire issues this licence only to someone a liquor and wine VENDOR has designated as its authorised New Hampshire representative, and a vendor may designate only one representative per brand — so a brand that already has a representative here cannot be added to your book. You must also have been a New Hampshire resident, or have a director, officer or partner who has been one for at least three years. ⚠️ Confirm one thing with the Liquor Commission before you count on New Hampshire: the definition at RSA 175:1, XLIV says a representative “shall be employed by the holder of a vendor’s license”, while the licensing section says only that a vendor must “designate” you. If the Commission reads that strictly, this seat is open only to a vendor’s employee and not to an independent contractor. We have not assumed either reading. New Hampshire is also a control state: the Liquor Commission is the wholesaler.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on RSA 178:10, I. Penalty: RSA 179:58, I.
South Carolina requires a Producer Representative Biennial Certificate of Registration (S.C. Code § 61-6-2870) before you can solicit orders there. Only a South Carolina resident, or a business that qualifies there, can hold it.
South Carolina defines a producer representative as a citizen of the State who maintains their principal place of abode in the State, so an out-of-state broker cannot register at all. You also may not hold any direct or indirect interest in a South Carolina wholesale or retail liquor business.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on S.C. Code § 61-6-2870. Penalty: S.C. Code § 61-6-2950 (revocation); § 61-6-2930 with § 61-6-4310 (contraband and seizure).
Utah requires a Local Industry Representative License (Utah Code § 32B-11-603(1)(a)) before you can solicit orders there. Only a Utah resident, or a business that qualifies there, can hold it.
Utah issues the local industry representative licence only to a Utah resident, partnership, corporation or LLC — but a Utah entity can hold it and its individual staff then need no separate licence. Commission compensation is expressly allowed, so the obstacle is the Utah nexus rather than how you are paid.
Rests on Utah Code § 32B-11-603(1)(a). Penalty: Utah Code § 32B-11-603(1)(b).
Licence required
26 statesYou need a personal licence, permit or registration before you solicit. Start these early — several take weeks.
Alabama requires an Industry Representative registration and ABC Board identification card (Ala. Admin. Code r. 20-X-8-.06(2)-(3)) before you can present and promote products to the state.
Alabama registers you rather than licensing you: the manufacturer or importer files an affidavit naming you, your address and how you are paid, and the Board issues an identification card you must carry at all times in the state. ⚠️ A registered industry representative may not take a spirits order from a retailer or a wholesaler — the seat is educating and promoting only.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on Ala. Admin. Code r. 20-X-8-.06(2)-(3). Penalty: Code of Ala. 1975, §§ 28-3-49 and 28-3A-25(a)(16) (the rule's own stated statutory authority).
Washington, D.C. requires a Solicitor's License (D.C. Code § 25-116, with § 25-102(a)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
A District solicitor licence is issued for one vendor only, so you need a separate licence for every wholesaler or manufacturer you represent. It does let you carry samples to and from licensed establishments.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on D.C. Code § 25-116, with § 25-102(a). Penalty: D.C. Code § 25-781.
Delaware requires a Sales Representative License (4 Del. C. § 501(b)(1)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
The Delaware licence lets you solicit orders from businesses licensed to sell alcoholic liquors, but only on behalf of a Delaware-licensed importer or manufacturer — not directly for an out-of-state supplier.
Rests on 4 Del. C. § 501(b)(1). Penalty: 4 Del. C. § 910.
Georgia requires a Representative Permit (Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 560-2-5-.06(1)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Georgia's permit is explicitly retailer-facing: a registered representative "shall be authorized to contact Wholesalers and Retailers and Retail Consumption Dealers". Register BEFORE doing anything — the duty bites on "selling, promoting, displaying, or advertising", so an introductory meeting is already covered. An independent commission broker is squarely inside the seat: r. 560-2-2-.01(oo) defines a Representative as "a person, employee, agent, INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR, or salesperson WITH OR WITHOUT COMPENSATION from a Licensee", so neither contractor status nor being paid on commission puts you outside it. The permit is tied to the principal who appointed you — that principal notifies the Department of the appointment, and the permit ends when it tells the Commissioner the relationship has — so each principal needs its own. ⚠️ Georgia also licenses an entity called a "Broker", and you must NOT hold it: O.C.G.A. § 3-1-2 defines a Broker as a person who buys from a distillery and resells to another broker, importer or wholesaler without taking custody — a title-taking trade of record, not a commission agent. Taking title is the one thing the DISTRYB model does not do. ⚠️ Two operating limits worth knowing: you may not act as a salesperson or sales-clerk inside a retailer's place of business (r. 560-2-2-.11), and anything you do is deemed to be your principal's own act (r. 560-2-2-.27(1)(a)), so working unregistered puts THEIR licence at risk as well as your permit.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 560-2-5-.06(1). Penalty: Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 560-2-5-.06(5).
Hawaii requires a Solicitor's or Representative's Permit (county liquor commission) (HRS § 281-39(c)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Hawaii has no state liquor agency: you apply to the liquor commission of each county you intend to work in, and each county sets its own term, fee and rules. A solicitor or representative may not have, own or control any liquor for sale, which suits a broker who takes no title.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on HRS § 281-39(c). Penalty: HRS § 281-102.
Iowa requires a Broker's Permit (Iowa Code § 123.42(1)) before you can solicit orders there.
Iowa is the one state that defines our exact seat: a “broker” is a person who represents or promotes alcoholic liquor on behalf of a distiller, manufacturer or class “A” native distilled spirits licensee, and the statute says an employee of that holder is NOT a broker. One permit covers every principal you represent, but each one has to be named on a list you keep current with the department. Iowa is also a control state — the department is the sole wholesaler of spirits to class “E” retailers — so you promote to the trade while the state fills the order.
Rests on Iowa Code § 123.42(1). Penalty: Iowa Code § 123.42(7).
Idaho requires a Supplier Representative Permit (IDAPA 15.10.01.021.08) before you can present and promote products to the state.
Idaho names the independent seat expressly — a Supplier Representative "may be an individual, a group of individuals operating as a brokerage firm, or may be a direct employee of the Supplier" — and the firm can hold the permit for its people. ⚠️ Rule .021.07 also says "All Suppliers doing business with the Division will have resident representation", which may or may not require the representative to live in Idaho; the research did not settle it, so confirm with the Division before assuming either way.
Rests on IDAPA 15.10.01.021.08. Penalty: IDAPA 15.10.01.021.13.
Kentucky requires a Special Agent's or Solicitor's License (KRS 244.060(2)) before you can solicit orders from licensed wholesalers.
A non-resident can hold the Kentucky licence, but only if their home state issues a similar one — otherwise the application is not accepted without the approval of the home state’s alcoholic beverage control agency. A producer’s agent solicits wholesalers; calling on retailers is the wholesaler’s own lane.
Rests on KRS 244.060(2). Penalty: KRS 243.990(1); KRS 243.990(2) for a KRS 243.020(1) breach, which escalates to a Class D felony on a third offence.
Louisiana requires a Solicitor's Permit (La. R.S. 26:71(A)(4)) before you can solicit orders there.
Louisiana’s solicitor permit is per dealer: a solicitor may not represent more than one dealer, and that dealer’s name and address appear on the permit.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on La. R.S. 26:71(A)(4). Penalty: La. R.S. 26:171.
Maryland requires a Solicitor's Permit (COMAR 14.23.01.07(B)(1)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on COMAR 14.23.01.07(B)(1). Penalty: COMAR 14.23.01.07(B)(9).
Maine requires a Sales Representative License (28-A M.R.S. § 1502) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Maine sets no residency or employment condition, which makes it one of the two most straightforward states for an independent broker. The licence runs to 31 December whatever month you take it out, so a licence bought in November is worth two months.
Rests on 28-A M.R.S. § 1502. Penalty: 28-A M.R.S. § 1503.
Michigan requires a Salesperson License (MCL 436.1502(4)) before you can solicit orders there.
- MCL 436.1502(5) exempts only display/pricing/rotation/shelving work and licensed drivers — soliciting or promoting to a retailer always needs the licence.
Rests on MCL 436.1502(4). Penalty: MCL 436.1909 (felony).
Minnesota requires a Broker's License (Minn. Stat. § 340A.317, subd. 2) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Minnesota is the clearest YES in this whole set, because the statute licenses our seat by its own name and defines it as a NON-employee. Minn. Stat. § 340A.317, subd. 1: "'Broker' means a person who represents a distillery, winery, or importer, AND IS NOT AN EMPLOYEE of the distillery, winery, or importer." Subd. 2 requires the licence, at $600 a year, plus $20 for each of your own employees who also works the state. Your producer must give the commissioner a written statement "verifying the applicant's CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENT" and accepting responsibility for your actions, so the paperwork assumes a contract rather than a job, and it is tied to the producer you propose to represent. You may "promote a vendor's product and may call upon licensed retailers" — but note the enumerated purposes are product identification, advance notice of new products or changes, and sharing market information; ORDER-TAKING AT RETAIL IS NOT IN THAT LIST, and the separate representative rule (Minn. R. 7515.0210, subp. 2) bars a distiller's or winer's representative from taking orders from retail licensees. Confirm with Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement how far your programme may go before promising a retailer an order. Monthly sample reporting is required of the broker (subd. 3).
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on Minn. Stat. § 340A.317, subd. 2. Penalty: Minn. Stat. § 340A.317, subd. 2.
Missouri requires a Solicitor License (intoxicating liquor of all kinds) (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 311.180.1) before you can solicit orders there.
Missouri names soliciting as licensed activity in its own right — § 311.180.1 bars anyone from soliciting orders for the sale of intoxicating liquor in the state without a licence. The Solicitor licence is the right one for a broker, and the statute keeps it compatible with taking no title: it expressly does NOT entitle the holder to sell direct to retailers, so you solicit and the wholesaler sells. The individual salesman permit was rescinded in 2018, but that only shelters a wholesaler’s own employee soliciting under their employer’s licence — it does not cover you.
Rests on Mo. Rev. Stat. § 311.180.1. Penalty: Mo. Rev. Stat. § 311.880.
Mississippi requires a Solicitor's Permit (for use by a broker) (Miss. Code § 67-1-51(1)(d)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Mississippi licenses this seat FOR BROKERS BY NAME — the Department of Revenue's fee schedule lists "Solicitor (for use by a broker)" at $125, its ABC vendor page says under a "Broker Registration" heading that "Representatives and Brokers must obtain a solicitor's permit from the ABC Permit Department", and it publishes a current roster of them. So get the Solicitor's Permit; you are not shut out. The statute positively fits a commission agent: the permittee "shall [not] buy or sell alcoholic beverages for his own account", which is the no-title condition the DISTRYB model already meets. One permit covers one principal, but "the permittee may also, in the discretion of the department, be issued additional permits to represent other principals" — so a multi-principal book is possible, by application rather than by right. ⚠️ Do not confuse this with the separate MANUFACTURER'S REPRESENTATIVE registration, which genuinely is closed: that person must be the manufacturer's control state manager or an executive officer AND a full-time employee. That is the principal's own designated contact with the Division, not the solicitation seat, and you do not need it. Mississippi is a control state, so the Division is the buyer; ask the ABC Permit Department which counterparties your permit lets you approach before planning a retailer-facing programme.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on Miss. Code § 67-1-51(1)(d). Penalty: Miss. Code § 67-1-87.
North Carolina requires a Brokerage Representative Permit for Spirituous Liquor (14B NCAC 15C .0102(a)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
North Carolina needs two permits, not one: a Brokerage Permit for the business and a Brokerage Representative Permit for each individual who promotes. You may contact the Commission, local ABC boards and retail permittees about promotion and purchase, but entering an ABC store is limited to calling on the buyer, buying, or marketing with the local board’s written permission.
Rests on 14B NCAC 15C .0102(a). Penalty: N.C.G.S. § 18B-102(b) (Class 1 misdemeanor) and § 18B-104(a), each reaching the rule via § 18B-101(1).
New Jersey requires a Solicitor's Permit (N.J.A.C. 13:2-16.1) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
New Jersey permits commission pay expressly, but the permit is issued only to a bona fide solicitor of a New Jersey Class A (manufacturer) or Class B (wholesaler) licensee, and "bona fide" is defined by performing substantial duties rather than by appearing on a form. You must carry the permit on you while soliciting.
Rests on N.J.A.C. 13:2-16.1. Penalty: N.J.S.A. 33:1-67; N.J.A.C. 13:2-16.14(a).
Ohio requires a Solicitor registration (agent, solicitor, trade marketing professional or salesperson) (Ohio Admin. Code 4301-2-01(B)(1)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on Ohio Admin. Code 4301-2-01(B)(1). Penalty: Ohio Rev. Code § 4303.25.
Oklahoma requires a Wholesaler's Agent License (37A O.S. § 2-120) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Oklahoma issues this licence to “agents AND employees” of a licensee, so an independent commission broker appointed as the agent of an Oklahoma-licensed wine and spirits wholesaler can hold it. You cannot also hold a manufacturer’s agent licence — the supplier-side and retailer-side seats are mutually exclusive here.
Rests on 37A O.S. § 2-120. Penalty: 37A O.S. § 6-117.
Rhode Island requires an Agent's License (R.I. Gen. Laws § 3-6-12) before you can solicit orders there.
Rhode Island sets no residency and no employment condition, and deems anyone who represents a distillery, winery or brewery to be acting as its agent — so the licence is required whether or not you take title or take orders. Confirm with the Department whether one licence can cover several distilleries before relying on that.
Rests on R.I. Gen. Laws § 3-6-12. Penalty: R.I. Gen. Laws § 3-11-5; § 3-6-12 (suspension or revocation).
Tennessee requires a Manufacturer Representative Permit (Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0100-03-.19(1), under T.C.A. § 57-3-202(d)) before you can solicit orders from licensed wholesalers.
The Tennessee permit belongs to you personally and names no manufacturer, so it travels between principals — but it is only required for soliciting orders from licensed wholesalers. Marketing and promoting to the public needs no permit, and a producer’s representative may not solicit, or provide any service to, a retail licensee at all.
Rests on Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0100-03-.19(1), under T.C.A. § 57-3-202(d). Penalty: T.C.A. § 57-3-202(d); Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0100-06-.05.
Virginia requires a Permit to solicit mixed beverage licensees (solicitor salesperson — spirits) (Va. Code § 4.1-212(A)(2); 3VAC5-60-10(H)(1)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Virginia’s permit is brand-limited: it covers the brands named in the authorisation letter from your principal, and you must be at least 21.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on Va. Code § 4.1-212(A)(2); 3VAC5-60-10(H)(1). Penalty: Va. Code § 4.1-229.
U.S. Virgin Islands requires a Business License — Solicitor, Sales & Commission Agent (27 V.I.C. § 301, with the fee schedule at § 302(a)) before you can solicit orders there.
The Virgin Islands licenses this seat by name: DLCA issues business licences by category under Title 27, and one category is “Solicitor, Sales & Commission Agent” — the tenth largest in the territory, with 304 licences outstanding in FY21. Note the alcohol title (8 V.I.C. § 5) separately requires a business licence to brew, distil, blend, manufacture, sell or distribute; soliciting is not in that list, so the category licence is the one that reaches you. ⚠️ We could not obtain the text of Title 27 §§ 301–304, so confirm the category and any additional alcohol licence with DLCA before you rely on it.
Rests on 27 V.I.C. § 301, with the fee schedule at § 302(a). Penalty: 27 V.I.C. § 304.
Vermont requires a Solicitor's License (7 V.S.A. § 275(a)) before you can present and promote products to the state.
Vermont’s solicitor licence authorises taking orders for malt, vinous and ready-to-drink products, but for spirits and fortified wines it is a promotion-only licence — it does not let you solicit spirits orders.
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on 7 V.S.A. § 275(a). Penalty: 7 V.S.A. § 651.
Wisconsin requires a Permit to solicit for future sales (Wis. Stat. § 125.65(3)) before you can solicit orders from retailers.
Wisconsin permits the person and the employer separately — both the natural person actually soliciting and their employer must hold a permit under § 125.65(3). A nonresident may hold one, but may solicit Wisconsin retailers only where the order will be filled by a § 125.54 wholesaler.
Rests on Wis. Stat. § 125.65(3). Penalty: Wis. Stat. § 125.65(9).
Wyoming requires a Class A Industry Representative License (Wyo. Dept. of Revenue Rules ch. 20 § 4(a) (eff. 2026-03-13)) before you can present and promote products to the state.
Wyoming is a control state and the seat is promotion-only: a licensed representative may advertise, promote and visit licensees in person, but may not place orders on a licensee’s behalf with the Division, and an industry representative may not sell liquor in Wyoming to anyone but the Division. One licence can cover more than one company.
Rests on Wyo. Dept. of Revenue Rules ch. 20 § 4(a) (eff. 2026-03-13). Penalty: W.S. § 12-8-101.
May be required
4 statesThe requirement is real and so is an exemption. Which one applies turns on who you represent, so it cannot be settled until you have a principal.
Florida requires a Distributor's Salesperson License (Fla. Stat. § 561.68) to solicit orders there — unless an exemption below covers who you'll be representing.
- The solicitation or sale of cider is exempt (§ 561.68).
Rests on Fla. Stat. § 561.68. Penalty: Fla. Stat. ch. 562 (2nd-deg misdemeanor).

- Does not apply to distributors or employees of distributors (235 ILCS 5/5-1(l)). A manufacturer's employees are also exempt, but only where the brand is registered under § 6-9 and sold solely to its registrants — confirm before relying on that one.
Rests on 235 ILCS 5/5-1(l). Penalty: 235 ILCS 5/10-1 (felony on repeat, qty-thresholded).
New York requires a Solicitor's Permit (NY ABC Law § 93) to solicit orders there — unless an exemption below covers who you'll be representing.
- No permit is required to solicit on behalf of a micro-brewery, farm brewery, farm cidery, farm winery, micro-farm winery, micro-distillery, micro-rectifier or farm distillery (ABC § 93).
The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on NY ABC Law § 93. Penalty: ABC Law § 130 (misdemeanor).
Washington requires a Representative's License (RCW 66.24.310) to solicit orders there — unless an exemption below covers who you'll be representing.

The licence names the business you represent, so you need one for each principal you work with.
Rests on RCW 66.24.310. Penalty: RCW 66.44.180 (gross misd. on 2nd+).
No personal licence needed
16 statesNo licence for you personally — but read the condition. In every one of these the answer holds only while you never take title to the product.
