About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the alcohol tax bond actually covers

Cities that levy a local alcohol tax or license fee often require a bond to secure it. The City of Arab conditions its alcohol license on a bond guaranteeing that you remit the alcohol ordinance tax or fee the city is owed.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Arab (the obligee). If you fail to pay the city's alcohol tax or fee, the city can recover against the bond up to its amount.

The amount is set by the city, usually tied to your expected tax or fee liability. The premium is 1% of that amount, $100 minimum — enter your figure and the exact price appears at the application; if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety — so remitting on time keeps the bond a license formality.
