Do you need a 60-day TABC Sign?

If you’re planning to open a new restaurant, bar, or distillery in Texas, your biggest hurdle isn’t just the paperwork—it’s the clock.

For locations that haven't held an active TABC permit in the last two years, you are legally required to post a 60-Day Sign prominently at your location. This sign notifies the public of your intent to sell alcohol and must remain visible for 60 consecutive days before your permit can even be issued. Our team at Gerald Franklin Agency can pull the history of your address to see if we can bypass the sign requirement altogether.
