TX TABC conduct bonds.
From $100. Enter your amount.
Texas requires a conduct surety bond from the holder of a Retail Dealer's On Premise License (BE) under Alcoholic Beverage Code §61.13, filed on TABC form L-2-60.2. The standard amount is $5,000, rising to $10,000 if your premises sit within 1,000 feet of a public school (property line to property line). Premiums start from $100, priced at 1% of your bond amount — the bond issues the moment you pay, with no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.

What it is and who needs it.
What the conduct bond actually guarantees
The conduct surety bond is the bond most Texas retail alcohol licensees and permittees post — for a beer license like this one, under Alcoholic Beverage Code §61.13. For a Retail Dealer's On Premise License (BE), it's a good-conduct guarantee: that you'll operate in compliance with the Alcoholic Beverage Code and the rules of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Commission (the obligee). The bond must say on its face that you will not violate a law relating to alcoholic beverages or a Commission rule, and that the amount of the bond is paid to the state if the license is revoked or on final adjudication that you violated the Code — §61.13(b)(2).
The standard amount is $5,000, rising to $10,000 if your premises sit within 1,000 feet of a public school, measured property line to property line — that is the same threshold TABC applies to every permit on this bonded list. The bond is filed on TABC form L-2-60.2. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
