§ 3-6-9 Wholesaler's license – Class
A. –
A wholesaler's license, Class A, authorizes the holder to keep for sale and to
sell malt beverages and wines at wholesale at the place described to holders of
licenses under this title within this state and to holders of wholesale
licenses in other states and the transportation and delivery from the place of
sale to those license holders or to a common carrier for that delivery. Sales
by a wholesaler in this state to a holder of a wholesale license in another
state shall be only to a wholesaler who is a distributor of the same brand of
malt beverages or wines subject to permission by the department. The license
shall not authorize the sale of malt beverages or wines for consumption on the
premises where sold nor their sale for their delivery outside this state in
violation of the law of the place of delivery. The annual fee for the license
is two thousand dollars ($2,000) prorated to the year ending December 1 in
every calendar year, and shall be paid to the division of taxation and turned
over to the general treasurer for the use of the state. Whenever any malt
beverages or wines are sold outside the state pursuant to this section, refunds
or credits of import fees previously paid on those malt beverages or wines
shall be made to holders of wholesaler's licenses under this title in
accordance with regulations promulgated by the division of taxation.
