Kansas requires a licensed liquor manufacturer to file a $25,000 bond with the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division under K.S.A. 41-317. Ours is $750 flat — 3% of the bond amount, identical for every manufacturer. One soft credit pull, e-signed in 1–2 business days.
















Your manufacturer license is waiting on this bond. Here's the entire process:
Business details, owner information, effective date. That is the application — the only extra step is a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.
Most of these clear quickly; if underwriting needs anything, you hear from an underwriter within 48 hours. The credit check is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Pay online and receive the executed bond (form ABC-804) ready to file with your manufacturer license application. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the state insists.
$25,000 bond × 3% = $750, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
Kansas licenses liquor manufacturers through the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division of the Department of Revenue, and conditions the license on a $25,000 surety bond under K.S.A. 41-317. The bond is filed on form ABC-804 and runs to the State of Kansas.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Kansas (the obligee). The bond is conditioned on your compliance with the Kansas Liquor Control Act and the payment of any tax, penalty, or interest you owe under it.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Manufacturers who stay current on their liquor taxes and follow the Act treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
These are the actual underwriting fields, including a one-time consent to a soft credit pull. Submit once and your bond is typically issued within 1–2 business days.
