About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Kansas licenses wholesale drug distributors through the Board of Pharmacy, and conditions the license on a surety bond. The bond is a public-and-state protection guarantee that you operate within the federal Drug Supply Chain Security Act and Kansas pharmacy law, and that the state can recover unpaid fees, costs, or penalties tied to your distribution activity.

The bond amount tracks the federal floor in 21 U.S.C. 360eee-2: the standard penal sum is $100,000 (form S-345), which applies when a wholesaler's annual gross receipts for the prior tax year exceed $10,000,000. Smaller wholesalers can use the reduced $25,000 bond instead.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Kansas (the obligee). If a valid claim is paid, you repay the surety — it is not insurance for you. Several distributor categories are exempt from the bond, so confirm your status with the Board before filing.

K.S.A. 65-1655 + Board of Pharmacy form S-345Kansas wholesale drug distributors are licensed by the Board of Pharmacy under K.S.A. 65-1655, with bond standards set by Board rule tracking 21 U.S.C. 360eee-2. The standard $100,000 surety bond (form S-345) applies when prior-year gross receipts exceed $10,000,000; otherwise the reduced $25,000 bond (form S-340) is accepted. Some distributor categories are exempt — confirm your tier and status with the Board.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

Do I pay the $100,000? +
No. You pay $3,000 — the flat 3% of the penal sum. The $100,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the state; it's not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
When does the $100,000 amount apply instead of $25,000? +
The standard $100,000 bond applies when your prior tax-year gross receipts exceeded $10,000,000. At or under $10M, the Board accepts the reduced $25,000 bond. Confirm your tier with the Board of Pharmacy.
Who requires this bond? +
The Kansas Board of Pharmacy, as a condition of a wholesale drug distributor license under K.S.A. 65-1655, with bond standards tracking 21 U.S.C. 360eee-2. No active bond, no license.
Is there a credit check? +
Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It's the only extra step beyond the application, and it informs approval, not price. The rate is a flat 3% either way: credit can affect whether we approve the bond, never what it costs.
When does it renew? +
Terms run 1, 2, or 3 years — your choice at purchase. You'll get renewal notices 60 and 30 days before expiration, with autopay available, and the bond must stay active for your license to stay valid.
