Posted 12/11/2020 by the Office of Communications

The due dates for annual filers are fast approaching! 

If you are an alcohol industry member eligible to file annual excise tax returns, the due date for filing your 2020 return and paying taxes due is January 14, 2021.

If you are a Bonded Winery or Bonded Wine Cellar eligible to file an annual operational report, the due date for filing your 2020 report is January 15, 2021.

Tips:

• We encourage you to start ensuring your 2020 records are up-to-date so that you can timely file your return and make payment to avoid penalties and interest.
• Use the tax rates that apply to calendar years 2018-2020 when determining what you owe.
• If filing your tax returns or operational report by mail, please be sure to use the correct address

Financial Hardship

If you are unable to pay your taxes, you may be eligible for an installment agreement, an extension of time to pay, or an offer in compromise. To minimize penalties and interest, file all required excise tax returns, even if you cannot pay the full amount due.
