What it is and who needs it.
What the Homewood liquor tax bond guarantees
Homewood, in Jefferson County, Alabama, imposes a municipal tax on liquor sales and conditions an alcohol license on a $5,000 bond that guarantees that tax is paid to the city.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Homewood (the obligee). If a licensee fails to remit the city’s liquor tax, Homewood can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Sellers who keep their liquor-tax account current treat the bond as a licensing formality. The amount is fixed at $5,000 by the city; we issue it at $100 flat, and the application collects no credit information.
