The bill H. 3810 proposes amendments to the South Carolina Code of Laws regarding the fees associated with licenses for establishments authorized to sell alcoholic liquors by the drink on Sundays. Specifically, it modifies Section 61-6-1810 to adjust the biennial license fee for businesses selling alcoholic beverages on Sundays to one thousand eight hundred dollars. Additionally, it maintains the nonrefundable filing fee of one hundred dollars for initial applications and outlines a fee schedule based on the quarter of the license period in which the application is made.

Furthermore, the bill amends Section 61-6-2010 by removing the requirement for the Department to offer an annual fifty-two week temporary permit for a nonrefundable fee of three thousand dollars. Instead, it establishes a nonrefundable filing fee of one hundred dollars for processing temporary permits, along with a daily permit fee of fifty-two dollars and fifty cents. The changes aim to streamline the licensing process and adjust fees to better reflect current practices. The act will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
