What it is and who needs it.
What the fuel distributor bond actually covers
Kansas taxes motor-vehicle fuels and special fuels at the distributor level under Chapter 79, Article 34, and the Department of Revenue conditions a distributor license on a surety bond. The bond stands behind the fuel tax you collect and remit — if you fail to pay, the state can recover against it.
The penal sum is set by the Director of Taxation: per the Department's guidance it is the greater of $1,000 or three months' average tax liability, so it scales with your volume. The Director can review and require an additional bond if your existing one no longer covers three months of tax.
The bond is filed on form MF-27, and the surety can be released only after lodging a 60-day written request with the Director — and stays liable for anything accrued before then. We issue the amount the Department set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
