A licensed supplier under New Jersey’s Motor Fuel Tax Act posts a bond so the Division of Taxation is guaranteed the fuel tax you collect and owe. The Division sets the amount from your tax liability — we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No long underwriting queue for the standard supplier bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with Taxation. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the Division set, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check to issue. Larger supplier bonds may get a quick underwriter review, usually within 48 hours.
Submit the executed bond with your supplier license or registration. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the Division insists on them.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure the Division of Taxation set and the premium updates.
New Jersey taxes motor fuel under the Motor Fuel Tax Act (N.J.S.A. 54:39-101 et seq.), administered by the Division of Taxation. A licensed supplier — the party that holds fuel in the terminal system and is responsible for the tax as it moves — must post a bond securing the tax it collects and remits.
The bond is a tax guarantee: it stands behind your faithful performance of the duties in the Act, principally the timely and full payment of motor fuel tax. The Division sizes the bond to your liability — in practice often around three times your greatest monthly tax over the preceding twelve months — so it scales with your volume.
If you fail to remit, the Division can recover the shortfall against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the Division set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the Division of Taxation set — most issue quickly, with larger supplier bonds getting a short underwriter review.
