The Regulatory and Licensing Section is authorized to issue the permit to retailers whose licenses are being transferred, expiring or otherwise discontinued. The law allows the permit applicant to file a bulk transfer permit application on or before the last day the license was in effect. The transfer may be with or without consideration (whether by sale, gift, inheritance, assignment or otherwise). Penalties for bulk transfers without a permit include a fine, imprisonment and confiscation of the alcoholic beverages. A Bulk Transfer Permit authorizes transfer of the alcoholic beverage inventory only to: · the person who has acquired the seller's license through transfer or · any license holder within 60 days of the date the seller's license expires. A Bulk Transfer Permit is not required for license transfers where there is no alcoholic beverage inventory. The following conditions must be met: 1. 2. 3. Only one application should be filed for the transaction, usually by the seller. This application (Form COM-FED/RLD-329) is available at: http://forms.marylandtaxes.com/alcohol_forms/329.pdf The applicant must inventory in columnar format, the brands, sizes, quantities, etc. of the alcoholic beverages being transferred. Applicants should keep a copy of the inventory for their records. (See the sample inventory chart below.) When the sale is part of a license transfer, the bulk transfer permit application must be filed at the same time as the application for license transfer. Purchases and sales made between the time inventory is taken and the stock is transferred must be recorded and the records available for inspection. When a license is due to expire or be canceled, the bulk transfer permit application must list the name and address of the proposed buyer and the class and number of the buyer's license. 4. The Field Enforcement Division may inspect the applicant's inventory to establish proof of acquisition and proposed disposition. Applicants will be given due notice if their application is not approved. When an application is approved: 1. In the case of a license transfer; the Bulk Transfer Permit will be issued to the local Board of License Commissioners, pending the license transfer. When the license is approved for transfer, the local board is authorized to formally issue the Bulk Transfer Permit. Where there is no license transfer, the permit will be issued to the applicant. The transaction must be completed within 60 days of the license transfer or, when there is no license transfer within 60 days of the issue date of the Bulk Transfer Permit. The permit shall be valid up to one year from the date of issue to the local board and is valid for one transfer only. The Field Enforcement Division may extend this time limit upon request, with good reason. 2. 3. 4.
