Studying taxes and fees related to alcohol.

HB 1624 directs Washington's Department of Revenue to study the state's current alcohol tax and fee system, focusing on taxes based on sales price, volume, or alcohol content. The study will analyze tax types, historical rates, 25 years of sales and revenue data (by product category), and comparisons with other states and countries on taxation methods. The report must be submitted to the legislature by December 31, 2025, and does not change existing tax policies. This study affects state agencies (Department of Revenue and Liquor Board) responsible for data collection and reporting.
