What the tobacco bond actually covers
Tennessee taxes tobacco products under the Tobacco Tax Law (Tenn. Code Ann. § 67-4-1001 et seq.). Anyone licensed in the tobacco trade — including a manufacturer's warehouse, which stores tobacco products separate from the manufacturing operation for distribution — must post a surety bond with the Department of Revenue.
The bond is conditioned on the licensee paying the tobacco tax and properly stamping or accounting for the products used, sold, distributed, or handled. It stands behind the tax owed before it is settled — if the licensee fails to remit, the state can recover against the bond.
The amount is set by the Department of Revenue based on your expected tax liability, so there is no single statutory figure. Enter the amount on your Department notice and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check — same honest pricing as every bond we write.
