Beer and wine businesses gain quarterly filing

Beginning January 1, 2026, qualifying Iowa businesses can report and pay beer barrel and wine gallonage taxes quarterly instead of monthly. This option covers Class A and special Class A beer permit holders and Class A wine permit holders. For each tax, holders must reasonably expect to owe no more than $2,500 for the July 1–June 30 year. They must also have owed no more than $2,500 for that tax in the immediately preceding July 1–June 30 year. Reports and payments are due October 10 for July–September, January 10 for October–December, April 10 for January–March, and July 10 for April–June. Monthly filing remains required for holders who do not qualify, and tax rates stay unchanged. The existing 10% wine-tax penalty remains when the required report is not filed and tax is not paid on time.
