Apply for permission to handle beer products


Procedure

You must apply for the permit in writing:

  • Download the form that suits you via the website of the Generalzolldirektion:
    • "Application - tax warehouse keeper for beer" (Form 2000).
    • "Application - registered consignor" (Form 2736)
    • "Application - Registered User" (Form 2740)
    • "Application - Registered Consignee, Permanent Permit" (Form 2745)
    • "Application - registered consignee in individual case" (Form 2728)
    • "Application - designee of a mail order vendor" (Form 2753).
  • Complete the forms in full and mail them to your local Main Customs Office.
  • The main customs office will examine your application.
  • You will receive a decision in the form of a permit or a refusal.

The main customs office responsible is the one from whose district you operate your business or, if you do not operate a business, the one in whose district you are resident. If your business is operated from a location outside Germany or if you do not have a place of residence in Germany, the main customs office in whose district you first appear for tax purposes is locally responsible.
