About this bond

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 and we issue it at a flat 3%.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Wyoming nonresident contractor tax bond? +
The premium is a flat 3% of the bond amount, with a $275 minimum. The bond amount itself is set by statute as a percentage of total contract payments (or an amount the department determines). Enter that figure and the quote updates.
Why does Wyoming require it? +
To secure the sales and use tax on a project before a nonresident contractor leaves the state. Under W.S. 39-15-303 / 39-16-303, the contractor registers the project with the Department of Revenue and posts the bond.
Is this a single-project bond? +
Yes — this is the single (per-project) bond. It backs the tax on one registered contract. If you run many Wyoming projects, ask us about a blanket arrangement instead.
Can I post cash instead? +
A nonresident prime contractor may post a cash deposit of a percentage of contract payments, refunded once a surety bond is filed or the project is satisfactorily completed. A surety bond is usually cheaper than tying up that cash.
Is there a credit check? +
No — this bond is issued with no credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
