Georgia licenses motor fuel distributors through the Department of Revenue under O.C.G.A. § 48-9-4, and conditions the license on a surety bond. The bond is a tax guarantee: it stands behind the motor fuel taxes you collect and owe to the state.
The amount is three times the average monthly motor fuel taxes due during the preceding 12 months, with a floor of $1,000 and a cap of $150,000. The bond is continuous, and each year is a separate obligation while it is in force.
The bond is conditioned on timely filing of true reports and payment of all fuel taxes, penalties, and interest. If you fail to remit, the state can recover against it — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the Department of Revenue set, 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.
