KS liquid fuels carrier bonds.
$275 flat. Soft pull.
Kansas requires a liquid fuels carrier to file a $1,000 bond with the Department of Revenue to transport motor fuel on state highways. Three percent of $1,000 is $30 — below our $275 minimum — so the price is $275 flat. One soft credit pull, e-signed in 1–2 business days.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Kansas licenses liquid fuels carriers — businesses that transport motor-vehicle fuels and special fuels on the state's highways — through the Department of Revenue, under the motor fuel tax law in Chapter 79, Article 34 of the Kansas Statutes Annotated. The license is applied for on form MF-26 and is conditioned on a $1,000 surety bond.
The bond stands behind the carrier's compliance with the fuel transportation and reporting rules: that fuel moves only on authorized terms, that container and meter seals are not tampered with, that loads reach lawful recipients, and that the carrier files its required petroleum products reports.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Kansas (the obligee). The amount is a fixed $1,000 set by the Department — small, but mandatory before your license activates. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
