Kansas requires a special order shipping licensee to file a $750 bond with the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division under K.S.A. 41-317. Ours is our $275 minimum — 3% of $750 is well under it, so the floor applies. No credit check on this bond.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Kansas licenses special order shipping through the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division, and conditions the license on a $750 surety bond under K.S.A. 41-317. The special order shipping license lets a winery ship wine to Kansas consumers on special order; 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 — including remitting the gallonage tax and enforcement tax on the wine you ship into the state.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. A shipper who follows the Act and remits its taxes treats the bond as a license formality, not a risk.

K.S.A. 41-317 (special order shipping)K.S.A. 41-317 requires a special order shipping (winery special shipping) applicant to file a bond with the application, in an amount the statute sets at $750, executed by corporate sureties licensed in Kansas and conditioned on compliance with the Kansas Liquor Control Act. The bond is filed with the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division on form ABC-804 (or an ABC-803 escrow bond). Confirm the amount on your application.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

How much is the Kansas special order shipping bond? +
The premium is $275 — our minimum. The bond amount is $750, and 3% of $750 is about $23, well below the $275 floor, so $275 applies. The same number for every shipper.
Do I pay the $750? +
No. You pay $275. The $750 is the surety's maximum liability to the state — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
What is the special order shipping license? +
It lets a winery ship wine to Kansas consumers on special order, subject to the Kansas Liquor Control Act and the state’s gallonage and enforcement taxes. The $750 bond is a condition of that license under K.S.A. 41-317.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount license bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the license. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your license never lapses over a missed email.
