The bond the New Mexico Taxation and Revenue Department can require to secure tax it collects. The most common version is the out-of-state contractor gross-receipts tax bond under NMSA 7-1-55, sized to the tax on a construction contract. Pricing starts from $100 — your exact price appears at the application, and the premium equals 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.
















No underwriting queue for the standard tax bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with Taxation and Revenue. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the Department or contract required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
The application collects no credit information — no waiting on a pull. The executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to the Taxation and Revenue Department to secure the tax. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the Department insists.
New Mexico's gross receipts tax (GRT) applies to most business done in the state. For an out-of-state contractor with no principal place of business in New Mexico taking a prime construction contract, NMSA 7-1-55 requires a surety bond — or other acceptable security — to secure the GRT on that contract.
The bond amount equals the gross receipts to be paid under the contract multiplied by the applicable GRT rate (state plus any local-option rates). If the contract value changes by 10% or more after the bond is filed, the contractor must adjust the bond within 14 days.
More broadly, the Taxation and Revenue Department can require a tax bond as security in other situations. The bond stands behind the tax you owe — if you fail to remit, the Department can recover against it. Enter the amount required — pricing starts from $100, and the application collects no credit information.
Submit the application with the bond amount the Department or your contract requires — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
