Get Your RLPS Number.
To obtain your RLPS number you must apply and pay for your server permit application through the TABC’s Regulatory Licensing Permit System. Click here to start your application. Not obtaining your RLPS number prior to taking the server permit course could result in a delay in the TABC receiving your test results for the issuance of a server permit. It also may result in you having to retake the course. This is mandatory in order to obtain a server permit in Tennessee. This is for new applicants as well as renewals. Everyone must receive a new RLPS number each time you renew or obtain a server permit. If you receive a TMP number, this means you did not complete the RLPS server application in its entirety and pay the server permit fee.
