The application fee for a transfer of all other licenses from a licensee to another person is three hundred thirty-five dollars ($335). The application fee for a transfer from a licensee to another person and premises is equal to the application fee specified in paragraph (1) of
subdivision (a) of Section 23320.

Except as provided in Section 24082, the application fee for a transfer of a license, and any additional license held at specific premises, from one premises to another premises is seven hundred eighty dollars ($780).
(4)
Notwithstanding the other fee provisions of this section, the application fee for a transfer of an on-sale or an off-sale general license from one county to another county shall be six thousand dollars ($6,000).
(5)
The application fee for a transfer of an on-sale or off-sale retail license to include the parent or child of a licensee, when no consideration is given for the transfer, shall be one-half the regular fee for a transfer of a license from a licensee to
another person, as provided by this section.
(b)
If the application for a transfer made pursuant to subdivision (a) includes multiple licenses issued at the same premises, the application fee shall be required for only one of the licenses being transferred and the remainder of the licenses shall be transferred at no cost. In situations involving different license types, the application fee to be paid shall be the highest fee as specified in subdivision (a). If the application for a transfer made pursuant to subdivision (a) is combined with an application for a new permanent license pursuant to Section 23320 at the same premises, only the transfer application fee or the new permanent license application fee shall be required, whichever is highest. Notwithstanding this provision, the annual fee shall be payable for each license transferred
pursuant to subdivision (c) and for each new permanent license issued pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 23320.
(c)
In addition to the application fee, an applicant shall pay an annual fee for each of the licenses included in a transfer application made pursuant to this section.

The department may charge a fee for the reactivation of any license following its surrender or abandonment for cases pursuant to regulations of the department.
(e)
(1)
The fee for the application to make material or substantial physical changes to the licensed premises or to the character of the licensed premises shall be three hundred forty-five dollars ($345), except when the application involves an expansion of
the licensed premises, in which case the fee shall be three hundred eighty dollars ($380).
(2)
If the department approves the application, with or without conditions, notwithstanding that a written objection to the change to the premises has been submitted to the department in the course of its investigation, the department shall treat that written objection in the same manner as a verified protest pursuant to Section 24015, and the person objecting to the change to the premises shall have the same right to request a hearing as specified for verified protests in that section.
(3)
In its discretion, the department may require that the licensee proceed by way of a transfer of the license from one premises to another premises. In such circumstances, if the licensee has paid the
application fee pursuant to this subdivision, the payment shall be credited to the fee required to be paid pursuant to subdivision (a).
(f)
The fee for the submission of the report required by Section 23405, 23405.1, 23405.2, or 23405.3 is three hundred dollars ($300).

The report fee of three hundred dollars ($300) shall not be required for duplicate licenses issued to branch office locations pursuant to Section 23389 or Section 23390 or for club licenses or veterans’ club licenses issued to nonprofit or fraternal organizations pursuant to Article 4 (commencing with Section 23425) or Article 5 (commencing with Section
