Federal kerosene excise tax bonds.
Flat 3%. Enter your amount.
Kerosene is taxable fuel under the Internal Revenue Code, so a kerosene registrant whose IRS §4101 registration is conditioned on security posts a taxable fuel bond on Form 928. The IRS sets the penal sum; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.

What it is and who needs it.
What the kerosene fuel bond actually covers
Kerosene is a taxable fuel under the Internal Revenue Code, so businesses that handle it register with the IRS under 26 U.S.C. §4101 on Form 637. Where the IRS adequate-security test is not satisfied, it can condition the registration on a taxable fuel bond.
The bond is filed on IRS Form 928. You agree not to defraud the United States of any tax, to file all required returns, and to pay the kerosene excise tax under §4081 or §4041(a)(1), with penalties and interest. If you do not, the United States can recover against the bond.
The penal sum tracks your estimated quarterly excise tax liability on the kerosene you handle. If that liability changes materially, the IRS may ask for a strengthening or superseding bond — we re-issue at the new amount, always at a flat 3% with no credit check.
