About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the producer bond actually guarantees

The Georgia Department of Revenue's Alcohol & Tobacco Division collects the taxes and fees owed by businesses subject to Georgia's alcoholic beverage and tobacco laws. A registered producer posts a license performance and tax liability bond guaranteeing it pays those taxes, license fees, and related charges.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Georgia (the obligee). If a producer fails to remit the taxes or fees it owes, the Department recovers against the bond up to the $10,000 limit.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond follows the state's statutory December 31 renewal cycle; we track it and send notices 60 and 30 days out so your registration stays continuous.

Georgia DOR — Alcohol & Tobacco DivisionRegistered producers are licensed and bonded through the Georgia Department of Revenue's Alcohol & Tobacco Division, which administers the state's alcoholic beverage and tobacco tax laws (O.C.G.A. Titles 3 and 48). This $10,000 license performance and tax liability bond guarantees payment of the taxes and fees a producer owes; it renews on the statutory December 31 cycle. Confirm the exact bond form and license type with the Division.
