Newly issued Montana liquor licenses, updated weekly.

The Montana record this page reads lists licenses once they're issued, not applications while they're pending; Montana publishes it at tap.dor.mt.gov. A newly issued license is the public sign of a place about to open. This page reads that record as often as Montana updates it and lists the new licenses by county, city and license type, each linked back to the record.

Yes. The free Watch email sends each week's Montana list on Monday: city, license type, status and date, without business names. A Montana subscription, $79 a month, sends every new filing the morning after it appears, with the business name and address, and for new bars and restaurants a phone number or website looked up online where the state prints none. A CSV, an API and webhooks come with every plan.

The Montana source refreshes about once a week, and this page is rebuilt from it on that schedule.

Every row is read from tap.dor.mt.gov, the public record Montana itself publishes, and links back to it. Nothing here comes from a reseller or a news report.

Every Montana filing from one full week a few weeks back, in the layout a subscriber gets: business, address, license type, status, the date filed, and a phone or website where we found one. The link to each state record is left blank; subscribers get it. It downloads ready for HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, AgencyZoom or Repsly.

One-day and temporary permits (weddings, festival booths, charity auctions, tastings), and licenses nobody sells to: wholesalers, suppliers, importers, shippers, carriers, and employee or manager permits. Breweries, wineries and distilleries stay in. The first time we read a state we also treat everything it already listed as the starting point, not as new filings.
