Virginia ABC Licensing, or “VAL” for short, is Virginia ABC’s new licensing system that enables licensees to complete online transactions on behalf of their business. After creating an account and syncing your licenses, you can complete licensing tasks, financial transactions and track your required training all from the convenience of your computer. We do business when it’s convenient for you—day and night.

The VAL system provides licensees the ability to manage their account and profile, including adding authorized users (employees, delegates, attorneys, licensing services, etc.).
VAL also provides complete online access to business transactions with Virginia ABC, including:
Beginning in May 2022, Virginia ABC will begin onboarding existing licensees to the VAL system, based on their renewal month, regardless of year. We will begin with all May renewals and then follow a phased approach until every licensee has been onboarded. This process will take 12 months.
When your renewal period approaches, you will receive your renewal notice followed by a PIN letter that contains your account and PIN information with instructions on creating your account and syncing your existing license to your newly created VAL account.
Virginia ABC offers free online training to help managers, sellers and servers to become more responsible and better understand ABC laws, rules and regulations. For more information, contact Education and Prevention, (804) 977-7440 or education@virginiaabc.com.
