The Tax & Trade Practices Division of the ABC Board audits the records of beer, liquor, and table wine wholesalers, importers, as well as brewpubs and manufacturer licenses. The Division receives monthly reports from all wholesaler, importer, brewpub and manufacturer licensees. These monthly reports are compared with invoices from manufacturers of products sold to Alabama wholesalers. A comparison is made to ensure that all shipments of beer and table wine are reported, and that tax computations are complete and accurate. Detailed on-site audits of in-state importer, manufacturer and wholesaler financial records and business operations are conducted by staff to ensure appropriate taxes are paid and the operations of the licensee are conducted in accordance with Title 28, Code of Alabama (1975) and the Alabama ABC Board Rules and Regulations.
