North Dakota has updated its Direct Shipping License Application and Alcohol Liquor Tax Report. Wineries are now required to file the direct shipping license application and renewal form electronically. The license must be renewed annually by January 1. Wineries that are unable to file the license application electronically may request permission to file paper reports by contacting the Alcohol Tax Section in North Dakota at 701-328-2702. The Annual Liquor Tax Report (Schedule H) has also been revised. The Liquor Tax Report is in the form of an excel worksheet and may be submitted electronically or by traditional mail. The Liquor Tax Report is an annual report and due on or before January 15. The forms can be found on the North Dakota page of the Wine Institute website at http://wi.shipcompliant.com/StateDetail.aspx?StateID=339 under relevant documents.
