N.Y. Tax Law Section 426
Records to be kept by brand owners, distributors, owners and others


Every brand owner, distributor, owner or other person shall keep a complete and accurate record of all purchases and sales or other dispositions of alcoholic beverages, and a complete and accurate record of the number of gallons of beers produced, manufactured, brewed or fermented and liters of all other alcoholic beverages produced, distilled, manufactured, brewed, compounded, mixed or fermented. Such records shall be in such form and contain such other information as the tax commission shall prescribe. Said commission, by rule or regulation, also may require the delivery of statements to purchasers of alcoholic beverages, and prescribe the matters to be contained therein. Such records and statements, unless required by the tax commission to be preserved for a longer period, shall be preserved for a period of one year and shall be offered for inspection at any time upon oral or written demand by the commissioner of taxation and finance or his duly authorized agents, and every such distributor, brand owner, owner or other person shall make such reports to the department of taxation and finance as may be required by the tax commission. Nothing in this section contained shall be construed to require the keeping of a record of the purchase or disposition of alcoholic beverages by a consumer thereof, except by a person who uses the same for commercial purposes, or of the sale of alcoholic beverages at retail.
