Iowa

Here's your guide to registering products in Iowa.

Which product types to register

In Iowa, you'll need to register:

• Malt/Beer
• Spirits (not currently handled in PRO)
• Wine

You'll need to include the following information for each product you register:

• Vintage (for wine)
• Bottle size
• ABV
• Bottles per case

How to register your products

• If you have a new brand, register it as a New Brand.
• If you have a new COLA under an existing brand, register it as a Line Extension.
• You don't need to register revisions or combos/variety packs in Iowa.

State fees and approval time

Some registrations are approved upon submission, while others require review. If you haven't received approval or a request for supporting information within 3 days, leave a comment for the state administrator on your registration, or reach out to the state.

Distributor information

Distributor information is required as part of label registration in Iowa, but you won't need to assign territories to distributors.

Required documents

• Distributor Appointment Letter
• Trade Name Document (if you answered yes to Does this brand operate a trade name owned by you?)
• Brand Owner Authorization Letter (if you answered no to Are you the brand producer?)
• Brand Acquisition Letter (if you answered yes to Are you registering a label because you just recently acquired this brand?)
• Bottling Letter (if you answered no to Do you bottle this brand?)

Renewals

Renewals are not required in Iowa.

More information

When you create a registration, PRO will generate an email and send it to the state for them to view. They will then respond directly to you via email to approve or reject the registration.
