Complete·4/17/25

Montana SB241 revises alcohol laws to prevent the Department of Revenue from denying alcohol license transfers due to outstanding taxes, penalties.

Montana SB241 amends alcohol license laws to ensure the Department of Revenue cannot deny a transfer solely due to outstanding taxes, penalties, or interest. It allows proceeds from the sale of an alcohol license to satisfy any existing liens owed to the department. The bill applies to all alcohol license transfers filed before or after its effective date, including transfers due to license type changes, corporate structure changes, or sales to float a license out of a quota area. The act is effective upon passage and approval.
