How To Apply For
A License
An application may be purchased online (Visa, Mastercard, or
Discover) for $20.00.
To obtain the establishment licensure application, you must
complete the “Online Application Request”. Upon receipt of the
online request and the fee, an online application will be created
specifically for the establishment. The login and password
information as well as the detailed instructions for the application
process will be sent to the email address included in the request.
You will be able to log in to this application as much as you want until
you have completed or uploaded all the required information. Use
the link below to purchase an application.
Once you have purchased an application and have completed all
of the required fields, you will submit the application to the Board for
review. At this time, the Board may be waiting for additional
documentation to arrive from 3rd party sources. This documentation
may include, verification of licenses, moral character forms, background
check, etc. You may check the status of your application by
clicking on the “Check Application Status” link below.
If you have already created an application and would like to
continue editing it or inputting additional information, login using the

Review Process
and Timeline
Once your application is received, it will be reviewed by Board
staff for completeness. When all documentation is complete, your
application will be approved by Board staff or forwarded to the Board’s
License Standards Committee. This committee makes recommendations
to the Board. Final action on applications reviewed by the License
Standards Committee is made at a regularly scheduled Board meeting.
If the owner(s)/operator(s) applying for the establishment license have
any criminal history, the process time is longer as the timeframe will
be based on the review of the criminal history itself. The Board
may request additional information or interview the owner(s)/operator(s)
before issuing a license.
Please do not call the Board office to find out your license
processing status. You can check your application status anytime
by clicking on the “Check Application Status” link above.
Board staff updates the website weekly with the new
establishment licensees. If the establishment has been issued a
license, it will be on the website,
www.bmbt.org, under
the Verify A License tab. Once the establishment license number
appears on the website, the owner/operator will receive the certificate
of licensure within ten to fifteen business days.
It is your responsibility to notify the Board of any change in
information occurring after the filing of the application. The
owner/operator of the establishment must keep the Board advised of the
current mailing address at all times.
