About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the liquor bond actually covers

Oregon licenses alcohol manufacturers and distributors through the Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC). Under ORS 471.155, certain licensees must file and maintain a surety bond before being licensed to manufacture, distribute, or sell alcoholic liquor in the state.

The bond secures that you pay all taxes, fees, and other payment obligations to the OLCC and otherwise follow the rules for your license type under ORS 471 and ORS 473. It commonly applies to brewery, winery, wholesale, warehouse, grower sales privilege, brewery public house, and wine self-distribution licensees.

The Commission can waive the bond for certain low-risk winery licensees and permit holders unless it finds an unusual risk of nonpayment. Where a bond is required, we issue the amount the OLCC set at a flat 3% with no credit check. (This is the tax/fee bond — separate from the liquor-liability coverage on-premises servers carry under ORS 471.168.)

ORS 471.155ORS 471.155 requires certain OLCC licensees — including brewery, winery, wholesale, warehouse, grower sales privilege, brewery public house, and wine self-distribution holders — to file and maintain a surety bond securing payment of taxes, fees, and other obligations to the Commission under ORS 471 and 473. The Commission may waive the bond for certain winery licensees and permit holders absent an unusual risk of nonpayment. Confirm the amount the OLCC requires for your license type.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Oregon liquor license bond? +
The premium is a flat 3% of the bond amount, with a $275 minimum. The amount itself is set by the OLCC for your license type, tied to the taxes and fees your operation generates. Enter that figure and the quote updates.
Which licensees need it? +
Under ORS 471.155 it applies to brewery, winery, wholesale, warehouse, grower sales privilege, brewery public house, and wine self-distribution licensees, among others. The OLCC can waive it for certain low-risk winery licensees and permit holders.
Is there a credit check? +
No — the liquor bond is issued with no credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
Is this the same as liquor liability insurance? +
No. This bond secures the taxes and fees you owe the OLCC under ORS 471.155. The separate liquor-liability requirement (at least $300,000 under ORS 471.168) covers injuries from over-serving — that is insurance, not this bond.
Where do I file it? +
With the OLCC, alongside your license application or renewal. We issue the executed bond ready to submit.
