Texas Tax Code - TAX § 151.462. Reports by Brewers, Brewpubs, Wholesalers, and Distributors

Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(a) The comptroller shall require each brewer, brewpub, wholesaler, distributor, or package store local distributor to file with the comptroller a report each month of alcoholic beverage sales to retailers in this state.

(b) Each brewer, brewpub, wholesaler, distributor, or package store local distributor shall file a separate report for each permit or license held on or before the 25th day of each month.  The report must contain the following information for the preceding calendar month's sales in relation to each retailer:

(1) the brewer's, brewpub's, wholesaler's, distributor's, or package store local distributor's name, address, taxpayer number and outlet number assigned by the comptroller, and alphanumeric permit or license number issued by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission;

(2) the retailer's:

(A) name and address, including street name and number, city, and zip code;

(B) taxpayer number assigned by the comptroller;  and

(C) alphanumeric permit or license number issued by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission for each separate retail location or outlet to which the brewer, brewpub, wholesaler, distributor, or package store local distributor sold the alcoholic beverages that are listed on the report;  and

(3) the monthly net sales made by the brewer, brewpub, wholesaler, distributor, or package store local distributor to the retailer for each outlet or location covered by a separate retail permit or license issued by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, including separate line items for:

(A) the number of units of alcoholic beverages;

(B) the individual container size and pack of each unit;

(C) the brand name;

(D) the type of beverage, such as distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverage;

(E) the universal product code of the alcoholic beverage;  and

(F) the net selling price of the alcoholic beverage.

(c) Except as provided by this subsection, the brewer, brewpub, wholesaler, distributor, or package store local distributor shall file the report with the comptroller electronically.  The comptroller may establish procedures to temporarily postpone the electronic reporting requirement for a brewer, brewpub, wholesaler, distributor, or package store local distributor who demonstrates to the comptroller an inability to comply because undue hardship would result if it were required to file the return electronically.  If the comptroller determines that another technological method of filing the report is more efficient than electronic filing, the comptroller may establish procedures requiring its use by brewers, brewpubs, wholesalers, distributors, and package store local distributors.
