What it is and who needs it.
What the fuels-tax bond actually covers
Idaho taxes motor fuels under Idaho Code Title 63, Chapter 24, and licenses distributors through the State Tax Commission. A distributor collects fuels tax that ultimately belongs to the state, and the bond stands behind the faithful performance of the chapter — including the payment of all taxes, penalties, and other obligations.
The bond is required of all licensed distributors unless the distributor is found financially responsible and granted an exemption — a distributor seeking exemption petitions the Commission in writing. The Commission also accepts a cash deposit or an irrevocable letter of credit in place of a surety bond.
If a distributor fails to remit the tax it owes, the state can recover against the bond up to the penal sum — and if the surety pays, the distributor repays the surety. We issue the amount the Commission set, with premiums priced at 0.75% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.
