About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Hartselle alcohol bond guarantees

Hartselle is a municipality in Morgan County, Alabama. Like most Alabama cities that allow alcohol sales, it imposes a local ordinance tax or license fee on businesses that sell alcohol, and conditions the license on a bond that guarantees that money is paid.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Hartselle (the obligee). If a licensee fails to remit the city’s alcohol tax or fee, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Businesses that keep their alcohol-tax account current treat the bond as a licensing formality. We issue the amount the city set, priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — the application collects no credit information, and your exact price appears at the application.
