Georgia participates in the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA), and the Department of Revenue can require a motor carrier to post a bond as a guarantee of fuel-tax payment. Most carriers never need one — when you do, the DOR sets the amount and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for the standard fuel-tax bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the Department of Revenue. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the DOR required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to the DOR to satisfy your IFTA fuel-tax guarantee. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the state insists.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure on your Department of Revenue notice and the premium updates.
Georgia is an IFTA base jurisdiction: interstate motor carriers based here report and pay fuel-use tax through a single Georgia license, filing quarterly with the Department of Revenue. Most carriers never post a bond — but the DOR can require one as a guarantee of fuel-tax payment.
A bond is generally required after a carrier files or pays late, falls behind on tax, or an account review indicates a guarantee is warranted. Under the IFTA rules, a carrier required to post a bond may be required to pay by certified funds until the guarantee is satisfied. The bond stands behind the fuel-use tax you owe — if you fail to remit, the state can recover against it.
The amount is set by the Department of Revenue, tied to your fuel-tax liability for the reporting periods. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the DOR named at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the Department of Revenue set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
