About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the distributor bond covers

Maryland permits wholesale drug and device distributors through the Board of Pharmacy, and conditions the permit on a surety bond. The bond secures payment of any fines or penalties the Board imposes, and any fees and costs the State incurs in connection with the permit.

It is a compliance guarantee that runs to the State of Maryland — not insurance for the distributor. If a distributor violates the law and the Board imposes a penalty, the State can recover against the bond, and if the surety pays, the distributor repays the surety.

Maryland law sets the amount by annual gross receipts: a distributor with prior-year receipts of $10 million or more posts a $100,000 bond, and one under $10 million posts $50,000. Confirm your figure, enter it here, and pricing starts from $100 — your exact price appears at the application, with no credit fields to fill in.
