Colorado commodity handlers are licensed by the Department of Agriculture under C.R.S. 35-36-201 et seq. (relocated from former Title 12, Article 16). Before licensing, a handler files a surety bond (or irrevocable letter of credit) of not less than $10,000 nor more than $1,000,000, set by the commissioner — generally about 2% of the prior year's Colorado commodity purchases per 8 CCR 1202-11. Confirm your required amount with the department.
