Liquor: other; engraving of bottles of spirits; allow. Amends 1998 PA 58 (MCL 436.1101 - 436.2303) by adding sec. 609k.

HB 5059 allows liquor vendors, their sales staff, or third-party engravers to personalize bottles of spirits sold by licensed distributors in Michigan. It permits engraving before sale (at the distributor's location) or after purchase (with the bottle returned to the distributor's premises for engraving and pickup). The bill clarifies that retailers holding engraved bottles for consumer pickup does not violate existing liquor laws. This directly affects spirits distributors, vendors, engraving businesses, and consumers seeking customized bottles.
