How to Buy Tax Free Alcohol

Effective April 1, 2008, Property Management will implement a new alcohol ordering process.

All orders for tax free alcohol must be submitted by 4:00pm on Mondays in order for your request to be delivered on Thursday of the same week. Property Management will no longer stock tax free alcohol for next day delivery.

"Tax-Free" means that the University has an approved Industrial Alcohol Permit from the US Alcohol and Tobacco Trade Bureau (TTB formerly known as Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms - ATF) to purchase alcohol free of the Federal Alcohol Tax. However, a purchase is still subject to California Sales Tax.
