What it is and who needs it.
What the beverage tax bond actually covers
New Jersey taxes alcoholic beverages under Title 33 (Intoxicating Liquors) and Subtitle 8 of Title 54 (Taxation), and the Division of Taxation requires a surety bond from businesses that sell, manufacture, import, or warehouse those beverages. The bond is payable to the State Treasurer and guarantees you file reports and pay the beverage tax on your sales and deliveries during the license period.
The Director of the Division of Taxation sets the amount for each licensee. By statute it cannot exceed three times the value of alcoholic beverages handled in a two-month period or $1 million, whichever is less, with a $100 statutory minimum — most operators land well under the cap.
If you fail to remit the tax, the State can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the Division set, on form B-7-1800, with premiums starting from $100 and varying by bond amount; the application collects no credit information. Because the state wants the original, this bond is mailed to you for a wet-ink signature.
