About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the terminal operator bond actually covers

A motor fuel terminal operator runs the bulk storage terminal where fuel is held before it crosses the rack and the tax is precollected. Missouri licenses terminal operators under Chapter 142 RSMo and, under §142.884, can require a surety bond tied to the operation and the tax at risk.

The Director sets the amount based on the terminal's role in the supply chain. The bond guarantees the operator's compliance with the fuel tax law — proper reporting of the fuel moving through the terminal and the tax that depends on it. The Department of Revenue is the obligee.

It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the Department set; pricing starts from $100 with a soft credit pull that never affects your score, and larger amounts get a quick underwriter review.

§142.884 RSMo (terminal operator)Missouri licenses motor fuel terminal operators under Chapter 142 RSMo, and §142.884 authorizes a surety bond securing the operator’s compliance with the fuel tax law, in an amount set by the Director of Revenue based on the operation. The Department of Revenue is the obligee. Confirm your required amount on your terminal operator license notice.

How is the amount determined?The Director sets it based on the terminal’s role and the tax at risk. The exact figure is on your terminal operator license notice — send it to us and we’ll match it.
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. Pricing is 1.2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, regardless of credit tier.
Is this the same as the supplier bond?No. The supplier / permissive supplier bond under §142.884 runs $100,000–$2,000,000 for the rack-level licensee. The terminal operator bond covers the storage-terminal licensee and is sized by the Director to that role. If you hold both roles, you may need each.
