Florida spirits manufacturer bonds.
From $100.
A Florida licensed spirits manufacturer (distillery) files a beverage surety bond with the Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco under the Beverage Law (Fla. Stat. §§561.37 and 561.371). The bond amount depends on your license tier, and our premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — priced by that amount, not a credit tier.

What it is and who needs it.
What the spirits manufacturer bond covers
Florida regulates alcohol through the Beverage Law (Chapters 561–568), administered by the DBPR Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco. Manufacturers of alcoholic beverages — including distilleries that produce spirits — must post a surety bond as a condition of their license under Fla. Stat. §§561.37 and 561.371.
The bond is filed on form ABT-6032 and guarantees that you pay all excise taxes due on the spirits you produce and comply with the Beverage Law. The required amount is set by the statute and your specific license tier — confirm yours with the Division before you file.
It is not insurance for you. No license issues without the bond. If the Division collects on the bond for unpaid beverage tax, you repay the surety. The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — priced by your bond amount, not a credit tier; at the standard amounts the application collects no credit information.
