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.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $10,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
