Alcohol Licenses
Beer and Liquor License
The Department of Alcoholic Beverages Division (ABD) requires filing of all new and renewal applications for beer permits, liquor licenses, and corresponding payments be completed online. Please have your application filed on-line with ABD no later than fifteen days prior to the desired effective date in order for the application to be on the agenda for approval by the Ringgold County Board of Supervisors (local authority). The Ringgold County Board of Supervisors meets 1st four Mondays of every month at 9:00 a.m.
License fees will be processed through the ABD’s electronic funds transfer (EFT) system. The payment for the total cost of the license will be deducted after the application has been processed by ABD and approved by the local authority.
The final approved license will be emailed to the applicant’s email address provided during the application process.
The Ringgold County Board of Supervisors only have authority for approval of applicants located outside of incorporated city limits. Any applicant inside of an incorporated city should contact the appropriate City Clerk.
Please contact the Ringgold County Auditor’s Office with any local authority questions at (641) 464-3239.
Log onto the Iowa Alcoholic Beverage Division’s website and click on the Licensing section and complete the online application process.
For questions or difficulties contact the ABD at (515) 281-7400 option 1.
