Frequently Asked Questions
Important Notice: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) are for general information purposes only, the priority drawing procedures and license application requirements are governed by statute and regulations. Interested parties should review all applicable laws and regulations or contact an attorney.
What is a priority license?
Licenses to sell beer and wine are available year-round to qualified applicants. However, general licenses, which authorize the retail sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits are only available once per year during the designated priority application period. A priority license refers to a brand new (original) general license or a general license that is being transferred from one county to another county (intercounty transfer).
General license types that can be applied for as a priority license are types 21, 47, 48, 57, and 75.
What is a priority drawing application?
The appropriate ABC-521 or ABC-522 forms must be submitted to the department to participate in a priority drawing. The priority drawing application forms can be found on ABC’s website. Only applicants who have submitted a complete priority drawing application and paid the required fees within the prescribed period will have an opportunity to participate in a priority drawing to be selected to thereafter apply for a priority license. (California Business and Professions Code Sections 23821 & 23961 and Title 4 California Code of Regulations section 69.2).
What happens if I did not complete my application correctly?
Your application will be deemed disqualified, and you will not be able to participate in the requested priority drawing, pursuant to Title 4 California Code of Regulations section 69.2 (c).
What do I do if I realize that I made a mistake on my application?
You should request a withdrawal of the incorrect application, and submit a new complete application. The new application must be submitted within the prescribed application period.
