New Brunswick to allow direct-to-consumer alcohol sales with some other provinces

NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA, JUL 7 – New Brunswick removes limits on personal alcohol imports to reduce trade barriers amid U.S. tariffs, boosting interprovincial market access and benefiting local craft producers.

  • On July 7, 2025, New Brunswick announced plans to permit residents to purchase alcohol from other Canadian provinces and territories once updated regulations are finalized.
  • This change follows a series of agreements starting in March 2025 when most provinces and the federal government committed to removing internal trade barriers for alcohol sales.
  • The new rules remove limits on the amount of liquor individuals can bring in for personal use and will take effect once regulations identify participating jurisdictions.
  • Ryan Mallough noted initial optimism about frameworks being prepared but expressed disappointment hearing the full rollout may be about a year away, targeting May 2026 for completion.
  • The move aims to reduce trade barriers intensified by the U.S. trade war and could accelerate expansion opportunities for some Maritime craft alcohol producers.
