About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

Read this first: the state requirement was repealed

Georgia historically licensed dealers selling pistols, revolvers, and short-barreled firearms under O.C.G.A. Title 43, Chapter 16, and conditioned the license on a $1,000 bond guaranteeing payment of the related taxes and fees. That chapter's state license requirement was repealed by HB 60 (the Safe Carry Protection Act) in 2014.

So unlike most license bonds, a Georgia small-firearms dealer bond is generally not a live state mandate today. Firearms dealers in Georgia still must hold a federal license from the ATF, but that is a federal requirement and does not involve this state bond.

If you've been asked for this bond now, it is most likely a legacy, contractual, or local requirement — a landlord, lender, or local office. We're happy to write it at $275 with no credit check, but we'd rather you confirm the requirement is real than sell you a bond Georgia no longer mandates.

O.C.G.A. Chapter 43-16 — state license repealed (HB 60, 2014)Georgia's firearms-dealer licensing chapter (O.C.G.A. Title 43, Chapter 16), which conditioned a small-firearms dealer license on a $1,000 bond for taxes and fees, had its state license requirement repealed by HB 60 (the Safe Carry Protection Act) in 2014. Firearms dealers remain subject to federal ATF licensing. Confirm with whoever is requesting this bond whether it is still required of you.

You might still see this bond if

A contract or lease requires it even though the state license no longer does
A lender or vendor conditions terms on you carrying a small-firearms bond
A local jurisdiction asks for one under a local ordinance rather than state law
You want it voluntarily as a mark of accountability to customers or partners

Five minutes. The whole thing.

These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section. Confirm someone actually requires this bond before you buy; Georgia's state license was repealed in 2014.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

Does Georgia still require a firearms dealer bond? +
Not as a state license requirement — Georgia repealed its firearms-dealer licensing chapter (O.C.G.A. 43-16) in 2014 under HB 60. A bond today is generally a legacy, contractual, or local requirement rather than a state mandate. Dealers still need a federal ATF license, which doesn't involve this bond.
How much is it? +
If you do need it, the premium is $275 — our minimum. The flat 3% on the $1,000 bond is $30, which falls under the $275 floor.
Should I buy it? +
Only if someone is actually requiring it — a contract, lender, or local office. Because Georgia repealed the state license in 2014, we'd rather you confirm the requirement than buy a bond the state no longer mandates. Send us the request and we'll tell you straight.
Is there a credit check? +
No — the application has no credit section. Small fixed-amount bonds like this issue without one.
Do I pay the $1,000? +
No. You'd pay $275. The $1,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
