About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the fisheries tax bond covers

Alaska levies a fisheries business tax under AS 43.75 on people who process or export fisheries resources from the state. The Department of Revenue can require a person engaged in that business to post a bond securing the assessments, fees, taxes, penalties, and interest that are due and to become due to the state.

When required, the bond amount is tied to the tax the state expects you to owe for the period — the commissioner sets it, and other negotiable security can be used in a form the commissioner finds acceptable. The bond is keyed to a calendar tax year, so it renews on statutory dates.

If you fail to remit the tax, the state can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the Department of Revenue set, from $100, on the form the state names — the application collects no credit information.
