United States

In the United States, liquor licenses are issued separately by each state. Majority licenses are often determined by individual states and locality that have laws and regulations in obtaining such licenses. For example, in the state of Oregon, the Oregon Liquor Control Committee (OLCC) regulates and controls the distribution, sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages. Otherwise, the general categories covered by the licensing law include when and where liquor can be served, the number that can be served, how many can be served, and to whom it can be presented. Across the United States, it is very common to have further prescribed protocols in the restaurant such as drink restrictions per customer, zero discount for drinks, and have an unfinished bottle of wine to remain in the restaurant. In addition, there may be some choice of class of license depending on how people intend to sell alcoholic beverages. The most common types of licenses used in restaurants include:

• Restaurant Liquor License: Known as a license for all liquor, the most commonly used license.
• Beer and Wine Liquor License: This is also categorized as a general liquor license, but does not include strong liquor or alcohol.
• The Tavern's License License: This license is commonly used for restaurants that serve both alcohol and food, but owns 50% of their sales on liquor.

It is important for wholesale liquor salespeople in the United States to verify the authenticity and validity of the liquor license before selling because the insurance company does not bear alcohol-related claims if no valid liquor license is involved.

In addition, some states have mandated "server permissions" for those serving alcoholic beverages.
