Delaware licenses gasoline and special-fuel distributors through the Division of Motor Vehicles' Motor Fuel Tax section under 30 Del. C. ch. 51. A distributor collects fuel-use tax on the fuel it handles, and the state wants a bond standing behind the tax before it is remitted.
The bond is filed with the distributor license application, and the amount is set by the Department from your estimated fuel-tax liability — commonly a multiple of your average monthly liability, subject to the statutory minimum and maximum. If your volume changes, the required amount can be adjusted.
The bond stands behind the fuel tax you collect or owe — if you fail to remit, the state can recover against it. We issue the amount the DMV set, at a flat 3% with no credit check. Confirm your exact figure on your distributor application before you file.
Submit the application with the bond amount the DMV set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
