KS liquor license bonds.
$275. Five minutes.
Kansas Alcoholic Beverage Control requires a $2,000 bond from farm wineries and several other liquor licensees under K.S.A. 41-317. At a flat 3% that math lands below our floor, so the price is our $275 minimum — and license bonds like this are the fastest thing we issue.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Kansas conditions a liquor license — for farm wineries and several other licensee classes — on a $2,000 bond filed with the Department of Revenue's Alcoholic Beverage Control division. The bond is a tax-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind the liquor taxes you owe the state and your compliance with the liquor control act.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Kansas (the obligee). If a licensee fails to pay the taxes due or violates the liquor laws, the state can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Kansas lets you satisfy the requirement with an escrow bond (ABC-803), a surety bond (ABC-804), or cash. A surety bond is usually cheapest — you pay the premium rather than tying up $2,000 in cash. The bond must stay active for the life of your license, so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out.
