the states individually, under authority the Twenty-first Amendment left with them, rather than by one federal scheme. The result is fifty regulatory regimes that differ on nearly every variable a shipper cares about.<\/p><p>Most states also operate a three-tier system, in which producers sell to licensed distributors, distributors sell to licensed retailers, and retailers sell to consumers. Direct-to-consumer shipping is an exception carved into that structure, granted state by state and on each state\u2019s own terms. A producer therefore manages two distinct compliance problems at once, with different rules, different filings and different licenses.<br \/>The consequences are also different in kind. A tax error usually produces an assessment. A shipping violation can produce loss of the license to sell in that state, which is a revenue problem rather than a cost one.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cebba66 e-con e-atomic-element e-flexbox-base e-default-div e-cebba66-86093df \" data-id=\"cebba66\" data-element_type=\"e-flexbox\" data-e-type=\"e-flexbox\" data-interaction-id=\"cebba66\" data-e-type=\"e-flexbox\" data-id=\"cebba66\">\n    <div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e674bf1 e-con e-atomic-element e-flexbox-base e-default-div e-e674bf1-8de8d56 \" data-id=\"e674bf1\" data-element_type=\"e-flexbox\" data-e-type=\"e-flexbox\" data-interaction-id=\"e674bf1\" data-e-type=\"e-flexbox\" data-id=\"e674bf1\">\n    \t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d20770d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d20770d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What does direct-to-consumer shipping actually require?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77fe5c3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"77fe5c3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Six obligations, each varying by state, and all of them applying to a single order.<\/p><ul><li>A direct shipper license or permit in the destination state, kept current and renewed on that state\u2019s schedule.<\/li><li>Product registration, since several states require the specific product to be registered before it can be shipped there.<\/li><li>Age verification of the purchaser, and in most states an adult signature at delivery.<\/li><li>Address validation, because shipping is prohibited into certain counties and municipalities even within permissive states.<\/li><li>Volume limits, which cap how much a consumer may receive from one producer over a defined period.<\/li><li>Tax and reporting: sales tax, excise tax and direct shipper reports, on each state\u2019s schedule.<\/li><\/ul><p>The checks have to happen before the sale completes, not afterward.
