Distribution is a compliance treadmill. We run it for you.

12+ hard deadlines a year

Monthly excise reports are due on or before the 15th — covering the prior month's sales. Dual-permit operators file twice: once to the alcohol regulator, once to the comptroller for tobacco.

One miss starts the clock

A late or inaccurate excise report brings penalties and a probation window. A second violation inside that window escalates to suspension — and a suspended permit stops every delivery.

The paperwork compounds

State excise, federal TTB returns, stamp accounting, annual AIMS reporting, permit renewals, and FinCEN BOI updates — each on its own schedule, each with its own agency portal.

Every filing a distributor owes. Handled.

State filings

  • Monthly alcohol excise tax reports (due the 15th)
  • Monthly tobacco / OTP tax returns and stamp reconciliation
  • Annual alcohol industry reporting (e.g., TABC AIMS)
  • Permit and license renewals — filed before the deadline, never after

Federal filings

  • TTB excise tax returns (semi-monthly or quarterly)
  • TTB operational reports for permit holders
  • PACT Act monthly reports for interstate tobacco sales
  • FinCEN BOI initial and change reports

Ongoing management

  • Complete compliance calendar for every permit you hold
  • Document collection and verification each cycle
  • Submission receipts archived for audit defense
  • Deadline alerts only when we need something from you

From treadmill to autopilot in one week.
