Relating to the powers of certain nonresident seller's permit holders who also hold a winery permit.
HB 3756 amends Texas' Alcoholic Beverage Code to allow certain nonresident sellers with winery permits to operate under specific conditions. It creates an exception for nonresident sellers holding a winery permit first issued on or before May 1, 2010, for wineries located in municipalities with populations between 130,000-150,000 within a county of 2-3 million people. The bill explicitly prohibits these permit holders from selling wine to the winery permit holder they serve. This change takes effect September 1, 2025, and directly affects nonresident alcohol sellers operating in qualifying Texas communities with existing winery permits.
