The Texas Statement for Permanent Age Exemption is a document that allows a minor (under 18) to purchase alcohol beverages without adult supervision. It is designed to prevent minors from attempting to purchase alcohol by providing proof of age and parental consent. The statement must be signed by the minor's parent or guardian, and must be presented to the seller of alcoholic beverages when purchasing alcohol. There are two types of Texas Statement for Permanent Age Exemption: a Standard Statement and an Enhanced Statement. The Standard Statement is intended for minors who are purchasing alcohol for personal consumption and is valid for up to two years. The Enhanced Statement is for minors who are purchasing alcohol for an event, such as a wedding or special occasion, and is valid for up to five years. Both forms must include the minor's full legal name, date of birth, parent or guardian's full legal name, and both the parent or guardian's signature and date of signature.
