About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Fulton's Liquor Control Commissioner issues local liquor licenses and conditions each license on a $2,000 surety bond. The bond stands behind the licensee's compliance with the city's liquor ordinances and the conditions of the license.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Fulton (the obligee), with the city as the protected party. If a licensed dealer violates the liquor ordinance or the license's conditions, the city can make a claim against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Fulton liquor licenses renew on a regular cycle, so we track your renewal date and notify you ahead of it to keep the $2,000 bond continuous.

City of Fulton Liquor Control CommissionerThe City of Fulton's Office of the Liquor Control Commissioner requires a $2,000 surety bond before it issues a local liquor license. Fulton's published municipal code did not surface a specific section number for this bonding requirement at the time of writing; confirm current terms with the Commissioner's office before filing.
