Section 61-6-2010 SC Code of Laws, 1976. ABL Regulation 7-400. The SC Code of Laws and Regulations can be accessed over the web at http://www.sctax.org, http://www.myscgov.com or at your local library.

B.Effect of permit:

A local option permit applies only to food establishments, which hold a permanent liquor by the drink license and a permanent beer/wine permit. This permit allows the food establishment to operate and to possess, sell, and consume alcoholic liquors, beer, and wine during otherwise restricted hours. Pursuant to S.C. Code 61-6-2010, this permit will be valid each Sunday morning 12:00 a.m. - 2:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 a.m. Monday for an annual 52 week period. A temporary permit is only valid for the premises covered by the permanent license(s). A permit is not valid until approved by the Department of Revenue and posted with the permanent license in the business. Business establishments may continue to operate from 12:01a.m. Monday morning until 2:00 a.m. under their permanent liquor by the drink license and beer and wine permit.

C.Qualifications:

A business must hold a valid permanent minibottle license to be eligible for a Sunday Local Option Permit and be located in a county or municipality which has passed a referendum authorizing the issuance of temporary permits within the county/city limits.

The annual 52 week permit will not extend beyond the expiration date of the biennial license.

See S.C. Code Section 61-6-2010(A).

2 months; the license fee is $500.00 plus a $50.00 SLED fee, a total of $550.00.

3 months; the license fee is $750.00 plus a $50.00 SLED fee, a total of $800.00.

F.The person applying must hold a permanent liquor by the drink license at the location. If applying as a corporate entity, the application must be signed by an officer, member, or partner. If the business is a sole proprietorship, the owner must sign. Fill in the fee amount. Place total fee(s) submitted in appropriate column. Enclose a check made payable to the Department of Revenue in the amount shown under the total column on the application.
