About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Alabama licenses the sale of alcohol through the state ABC Board, but a municipality must approve the license before the state issues it. The Town of Carrollton conditions that approval on a $10,000 surety bond standing behind the taxes and fees its alcohol ordinance imposes on licensees.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Carrollton (the obligee). If you fail to remit the alcohol taxes or fees the Town's ordinance requires, the Town can recover against the bond up to $10,000.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the Town, you repay the surety. Keep your Town alcohol taxes current and the bond is simply a licensing formality you renew alongside your ABC license.
