An airport lounge liquor license in Utah comes with a $10,000 bond filed with the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Services (DABS). Ours is $300 flat — 3% of the bond amount, the same for every licensee. The application is five minutes, and license bonds like this are among the fastest things we issue.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your airport lounge liquor license application or renewal. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$10,000 bond × 3% = $300, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
An airport lounge is one of Utah's retail liquor license types, regulated by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Services under Title 32B, the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act. The license lets a lounge in an international airport serve alcoholic beverages, and the state conditions it on a $10,000 surety bond.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the State of Utah (the obligee). The bond guarantees you'll faithfully comply with the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act and the rules of the Alcoholic Beverage Services Commission — including remitting any taxes and fees you owe the state.
It is not insurance for you. If the state recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. Licensees who follow the Act and stay current on what they owe treat the bond as a routine filing, not a risk — and the bond must stay active for the life of the license.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
