HF 993 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act providing for the direct shipment of alcoholic liquor, providing fees, and including effective date provisions.

HF 993 creates an "alcoholic liquor direct shipper license," allowing alcoholic liquor manufacturers to ship their products directly to individual purchasers within the state. Manufacturers, whether in-state or out-of-state, can obtain this license for a fee. The bill establishes requirements for these direct shipments, including limits on the volume of liquor that can be shipped based on the manufacturer's production, mandatory labeling, and the use of authorized carriers. Purchasers must be at least 21 years old and the liquor is for personal use, with licensees remitting a fee to the department based on the wholesale price.
