What it is and who needs it.
What the contractor tax bond covers
When a nonresident contractor performs a project in Wyoming, the state wants the sales and use tax on that project secured before the contractor leaves. Under W.S. 39-15-303 (sales) and 39-16-303 (use), the contractor must register the project with the Department of Revenue and file a bond.
The bond secures the tax due on the project. The statutes describe a bond or legal security equal to a percentage of the total payments due under the contract (or an amount the department determines); a nonresident prime contractor may instead post a cash deposit until a surety bond is filed.
This is a single-project (single) bond — it backs the tax on one registered contract. If the contractor fails to remit, the state recovers against the bond, and if the surety pays, the contractor repays the surety. Confirm your required amount with the Department of Revenue — pricing starts from $100.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Department of Revenue. Submit the executed bond when you register the project with the Department of Revenue. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $10,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
