How to Get a Liquor License

Liquor License is issued for those businesses that are located in the unincorporated areas of Winnebago County, outside the corporate limits of any city, town or village. Our office accepts and processes the liquor applications and fees for sole proprietors, partnerships, and corporations. The Winnebago County Liquor Commission approves the applications at a hearing and the County Clerk then issues the liquor license. Application forms are available in the County Clerk’s office or can be downloaded from this website.
