The security the Wisconsin Department of Revenue can require from a motor vehicle fuel licensee under Wis. Stat. § 78.11 — a surety bond payable to the state for the fuel tax you owe. The amount is set by DOR (never more than 3× your average monthly liability), and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for the standard fuel tax bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the Department of Revenue. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount DOR required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to satisfy DOR and get (or keep) your motor vehicle fuel license. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the state insists.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure on your Department of Revenue notice and the premium updates.
Wisconsin taxes motor vehicle fuel through licensed suppliers and others liable for the tax, who remit to the Department of Revenue. Under Wis. Stat. § 78.11, the Department may require any person liable for the tax to place security — before or after a license is issued — as a guarantee of the fuel tax, interest, and penalties they may owe.
When required, the security can be a surety bond payable to the state, and the amount may not exceed three times the licensee's average monthly tax liability. The Department can increase or decrease the amount as it deems necessary. If an applicant or licensee fails to place the security, the Department may refuse to issue or may revoke the license.
A surety canceling the bond stays liable for amounts accrued for 60 days after filing notice — so we keep your filing continuous. We issue the amount DOR set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the Department of Revenue set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
