This section is included in your selections.

A. All sellers of alcoholic beverages within the Borough, except sellers engaged in sales entirely exempt under FNSBC 8.52.040, must possess a current certificate of registration, for the purpose of collecting and remitting the tax under this chapter, prior to engaging in any retail sales.

B. All sellers requiring a certificate of registration under subsection (A) of this section must first possess a current business license as required by AS 43.70 and a current state liquor license as required by AS 04.11. Such sellers must then submit a certificate of registration application form to the Borough as prescribed by the director. The director may then issue a certificate of registration to the seller. A seller shall display the certificate of registration prominently at the place of business with the business and liquor licenses.

C. A certificate of registration shall bear the name of the seller, the address of the registered place of business, the form of ownership of the seller’s business, and a valid contact name and phone number for the seller.

D. A certificate of registration is neither assignable nor transferable. The seller shall immediately surrender the certificate to the director if the seller ceases to do business at the location named on the certificate, or if the seller otherwise sells, assigns, transfers, conveys, leases, forfeits, or abandons the seller’s business to any person or any other entity.

E. A seller shall submit a new updated application as prescribed by the director upon any change in ownership, business name, location, or contact information. The director, after receipt of the updated application, shall then determine whether a new certificate of registration should issue. If a new certificate of registration issues, the seller must first surrender the prior certificate of registration to the director before taking possession of the new certificate.

F. Any seller who violates any requirement of this section is subject to the penalties provided under this chapter. The Borough is also entitled to injunctive relief to prevent the seller from engaging in retail sales until the seller complies with the requirements of this section.
