Utah DABS Compliance
The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Services (DABS), formerly The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control in Utah has a multitude of roles. The department also oversees privately owned ‘package agencies’ that operate as liquor stores, administers the liquor laws, alcohol education, and regulates the sale, service, storage, manufacture, distribution, and consumption of alcoholic products.
With the stringent alcohol laws in Utah, solutions like VeriScan can help you remain in compliance should Utah DABS do a random check. With up to 95% accuracy when scanning IDs, timestamped visitor logs, and easily exportable visitor history, those selling alcohol can ensure they’re not serving over the legal limit and follow all rules and regulations set forth by the Utah government and Utah DABS.
Solutions to ensure compliance
How can ID scanning software help with Utah DABs compliance?
Utah law requires that businesses that sell alcohol scan IDs before serving anyone who appears to be under 35, and maintain a log that can be sent to DABs at regular intervals. ID scanning software can:
- Comply with the requirement to “verify the validity of the proof of age electronically”
- Easily maintain records of every ID scanned for 7 days, as required by Utah 32B-1-407
- Ensure you are retaining only the PII as required by Utah law, and no additional PII
- Automatically purge the PII at regular intervals
