If you already had your paper application endorsed, you may upload the scanned endorsed copy as your local government endorsement during online application in CAMP.

Direct to Retailer Permit Privileges
A Direct to Retailer permit holder may sell at wholesale and transport malt beverage, wine or cider that the permit holder produced, fermented, manufactured or blended directly to Oregon retailers when certain requirements are met. This privilege does not apply if the brand of malt beverage is covered under a wholesale distribution agreement pursuant to ORS chapter 474.

This permit doesn’t allow the permit holder to ship directly to an Oregon resident (a Direct Shipper permit is needed to ship directly to an Oregon resident). If you have an OLCC-issued Direct Shipper (DS) permit, you may ship malt beverages, wine or cider direct to an Oregon consumer, provided you follow OAR 845-006-0392 and OAR 845-006-0396.

Qualifications to obtain a Direct to Retailer permit to ship Malt Beverages, Wine or Cider
A person who is a resident of another U.S. state or territory and holds a license issued by another state or territory, that authorizes the manufacture of malt beverages, wine or cider, holds a standard Certificate of Approval under ORS 471.244, and holds a minimum $1,000 bond or security under ORS 471.155 is eligible for the Direct to Retailer Permit.

Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) are adopted, repealed and amended by the Oregon legislature and signed into law by the Governor.     

Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) are implemented by the OLCC. These regulations are proposed by, adopted, repealed and amended by the OLCC.

The ORS and OAR that define the Direct to Retailer Permit are in draft state and will be approved by the OLCC in December 2023. Please revisit this page for updated information at that time.


Privilege Tax
You are responsible for reporting to the OLCC the amount of malt beverages, wine, and cider shipped into Oregon. You may be required to pay a tax, called a privilege tax, on the malt beverages, wine, and cider. 
 
Privilege Tax Bond
Unless you qualify for an exception, you will be required to maintain a privilege tax bond with the OLCC.  More information is available at https://www.oregon.gov/olcc/Pages/privilege_tax.aspx

All alcohol licensing is now processed online through CAMP (Cannabis and Alcohol Management Program)
