An Oklahoma County Beverage Permit is a license issued by Oklahoma County to individuals and businesses that wish to sell or serve alcoholic beverages within the county. The permit is required for any type of establishment that will serve or sell alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption, including restaurants, nightclubs, bars, and taverns. There are two general types of Oklahoma County Beverage Permits: Retail and Special Event. The Retail Permit is valid for one year and allows the holder to sell, serve, and possess alcoholic beverages. The Special Event Permit is valid for a single event and allows the holder to serve alcoholic beverages for up to 5 days. Both permit types require the holder to adhere to Oklahoma state and county laws and regulations.
