About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the mixed beverage bond actually covers

Texas imposes a 6.7% mixed beverage gross receipts tax on permittees who sell mixed drinks, under Tax Code Chapter 183. The Comptroller can require a permittee to post security — a surety bond — guaranteeing payment of that tax, plus any interest, penalties, and costs.

The bond amount is set by the Comptroller and is generally tied to your tax liability: a $3,750 minimum, and up to the greater of four times your average monthly liability or $100,000. Mixed beverage permittees also post a separate bond for the 8.25% mixed beverage sales tax — that is a different filing.

The bond stands behind the gross receipts tax you collect and owe — if you fail to remit, the state can recover against it, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the Comptroller set; the application collects no credit information, and pricing is variable by bond amount, from $100.
