About the DC Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Administration (ABCA)
The alcohol-related forms cover several different kinds of applications and changes, rather than one general license document. The Alcohol License Application and Caterer's License Application are distinct from forms for changing a license class or hours, updating a corporate name or business officers, or canceling a license. Other titles address manager and solicitor licenses and renewals, license safekeeping, and endorsements such as entertainment or a summer garden/sidewalk café. Event-focused applications include pub crawls, festivals, and farmers markets, while a one-day substantial change application addresses a separate type of event-related request.
Medical cannabis forms make up another substantial group. The titles include adult and minor patient applications, self-certification for people 65 or older, and business applications and checklists. Separate business forms cover retailer endorsements, changes of location or information, transfer consent, and unlicensed operator attestations. These titles help distinguish patient paperwork from business licensing and business updates; they do not establish eligibility or required supporting documents.
The current catalog also includes documents for import and transport permits, manufacturer applications, security plans, protest information, settlement agreement changes, and sports wagering substantial changes. These are examples of forms represented on this page, not a complete inventory of documents issued by ABCA. Before relying on a form, check the agency’s current instructions for the applicable version, fees, deadlines, supporting documents, and submission method.
