DtC Shipping Compliance Deep Dive: Age Verification and Volume Limits

Age verification and volume limits are two of the most fundamental requirements in direct-to-consumer (DtC) alcohol shipping. While the concepts are superficially simple, there can be a lot to them. Most DtC shippers know the basics: verify the recipient's age before delivery, and don't ship more than a state allows. But the details matter, and the details vary. At a recent Sovos ShipCompliant webinar on DtC shipping enforcement, attendees came back with questions numerous these topics: What counts as adequate age verification in a given state? Where do volume limits reset, and how are they calculated? What are the exceptions — the states that handle things differently than you'd expect? We didn't have time to go as deep as the questions deserved. This webinar is the follow-up. Join Sovos ShipCompliant's Alex Koral for a focused, in-the-weeds look at how age verification requirements and volume limits actually work across DtC-permitting states — including the notable exceptions and edge cases that tend to cause confusion. We will cover:
  • How age verification requirements work across different states, what "adequate" verification looks like in practice, and where specific states impose requirements that go beyond what's typical.
  • How volume limits are structured, calculated, and tracked across states — including which states measure limits differently than you might assume.
  • The notable exceptions to standard rule patterns across both categories of compliance.
This webinar is designed for wineries and other direct-to-consumer alcohol shippers of all sizes, whether you want a thorough refresher or are looking to go deep on the specifics of these two critical compliance requirements.
