The City of Forsyth conditions a package / retail wine alcohol license on a $1,000 surety bond filed with the city. At 3% that lands under our floor, so the price is $275 flat. The application is five minutes, and license bonds like this are the fastest thing we issue.
















Alcohol-license bonds are about the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details, the premises and county of business, and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit section.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your City of Forsyth alcohol license application or renewal. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$1,000 bond × 3% = $30, which is below our $275 minimum — so the price is $275 per term, fixed.
Georgia delegates alcohol-license regulation to local governments, and the City of Forsyth conditions a retail wine / package alcohol license on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a compliance and tax guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to follow the city's alcohol ordinance and pay any excise tax due on your alcohol sales.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Forsyth (the obligee). If you violate the city's alcohol rules or fail to remit tax the city is owed, the city can recover against the bond up to the $1,000 limit.
The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and your alcohol license can be suspended — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $1,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — including the premises and county of business — with no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
