The Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control has implemented an electronic excise tax reporting system that allows Manufacturers, Solicitors, and Wholesalers to submit their monthly reports electronically. ATC requires licensees to submit reports electronically. Please see "how to get started" for additional details on electronic reporting.

How to get started

When you access the report in the ALCMS Customer Portal, you will have the option to enter invoices/shipments manually or upload a file containing all shipments. While a file upload is not required, you may wish to do so as an alternative to entering each invoice manually.

The report upload should be in the form of an Excel file. The following are the templates and file format requirements for both Monthly Reports and Wine Direct Shipper Annual Reports.

Use the following for Monthly Excise Reports:
