Overview

Wholesalers and distributors of beer, wine, and malt liquor are required to electronically file this monthly report for any sale made to retailers.  The Comptroller's office compares these sales made to the retailer with the retailer's sales made to the consumer as part of the Comptroller's sales tax audit program.  This report is due by the 15th day of every month.
