Guidelines for Importing Alcoholic Beverages into ӣ����Ƶ

The NJ Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control no longer requires a special permit to import alcoholic beverages into ӣ����Ƶ for personal use. However, when importing alcoholic beverages into ӣ����Ƶ, NJ Alcoholic Beverage Tax applies.

You are required to submit the following information when importing alcoholic beverages into ӣ����Ƶ:

• An inventory list of all alcoholic beverages being transferred to ӣ����Ƶ. The list must indicate types of beverages and the number/size of bottles; and
• An address where the alcoholic beverage is being shipped/transferred from and shipped/transferred to.

Email the information to joseph.nocella@treas.nj.gov. Once the Division of Taxation determines all taxes owed, we will reply back with the tax amount due.
