Also how much does a liquor license cost or other licenses needed? Also, do they charge per year, monthly?.--Answer1:Im not sure about the exact type of operation you will be running and a surcharge may apply, but figure about $3,200 for a 2-year liquor license as a baseline. In addition youll need a occupational license, and you may need one or more of the following, specific use permit, surety bond, mixed beverage tax bond, permit application, certification from the state comptroller, city secretary, county clerk, publishers affidavit, a hearing with the county Judge or obtaining the Judges waiver, develop the personal history affidavits, draft supplementary affidavits, and who knows what else. Its kind of a big deal.
