My Alcohol Service Permit went through the wash...now what?

by Joy Spencer


Replacing your Alcohol Service Permit if it has been damaged, lost or stolen - or if your name or address has changed - can be done through a few simple steps.

You will need to fill out a Service Permit Application, and check the box at the top for a replacement card. The fee for a replacement card is $5.

Service Permit Applications can be found on the OLCC's Website.

Print two (2) copies of your completed application. Sign the application, but you do not need an "authorized signature" for a replacement card.

Send one copy to the OLCC with your check or money order for $5; keep the other to use as your temporary permit until you receive your replacement card in the mail.

This is to replace an unexpired service permit. If you have questions on the status of your permit, call 503-872-5200.

Can I see your ID, please?

From time to time, we receive questions on whether the OLCC requires anyone buying or being served alcohol to have a valid ID on them. The OLCC requires licensees to check ID of anyone who reasonably appears 26 years old or younger. An establishment might have a restriction on their liquor license due to a history of serving alcohol to minors or allowing minors in prohibited areas. In this case, it could be that a licensed business is required to check the ID of every person entering the establishment or being sold/served alcoholic beverages. Or, a business can choose to have a stricter ID policy than what the state requires. If you’re at a restaurant with your underage friend or relative, you might not be served - even if you have the ID to show you’re of age. Some businesses will refuse service if they suspect that you might furnish the alcoholic beverage to a minor at your table. Current accepted forms of ID include a valid state driver license with a photo; a valid DMV ID card wit...

Why is my liquor store now closed on Sunday?

If you live in Oregon, you may have noticed that your local liquor store isn’t staying open quite as late, or perhaps it is now closed on Sundays. Each Oregon liquor store is essentially its own small business, operated by an independent contractor – also known as a liquor agent. Liquor agents have the authority to determine their store’s hours and days of operation, with some basic guidelines set by the OLCC to ensure adequate service to the public. Although hours of operation may vary from store to store, liquor stores must be open at least eight hours a day, Monday through Saturday. This must include the hours between noon and 6:00 p.m. And they can’t open before 7:00 a.m. or close any later than 10:00 p.m. Liquor stores can be open on Sundays and holidays. But, it is up to the liquor agent if they want to be open on those days. So why has your neighborhood liquor store changed its hours? The state’s economic woes are partially at fault. To fix an $855M state budget shortfall, the ...

OLCC launches new online search tool for distilled spirits, liquor stores

Looking for a particular distilled spirits product but don’t know which liquor store carries it or where a store is located? Introducing www.oregonliquorsearch.com - a new website designed by the OLCC to enhance customer service. With the click of a mouse, oregonliquorsearch.com allows customers to search for a specific product and find which stores carry it. You can search by brand name, a distilled spirits category such as vodka or cognac, or by liquor store. Your search returns the entire list of products, size, price, and locations that carry the product. All store locations will be listed, but not all stores currently provide daily liquor inventory. Searches for liquor stores give the address, phone number, and directions through Google Maps. Liquor agents are independent contractors who have the flexibility to set their own hours. Customers can check to see their local store’s hours by searching by location. “To me, it’s all about improving customer service,” said Jim MacAlista...
