What is an Alabama Alcohol Tax Bond?

Let us guide you in acquiring an alcohol tax bond for your business!     

This surety bond is needed to ensure the following:

  • That the license applicant will strictly comply with all regulatory and legal requirements of the business of selling alcoholic beverages in Alabama.
  • That the license applicant will pay the right amount of taxes

It is a requirement for owners of breweries, wineries, distilleries, beer wholesalers, or wine distributors who are applying for a license or permit.

 

The requirement is enforced by the Alcohol, Tobacco, Tax, and Trade Bureau.

 

This bond is a contract between the following parties:

  • Principal – the person will manufacture, sell, distribute, export, import the alcoholic beverages in Alabama
  • Obligee – the organization or government unit requiring the bond
  • Surety – the surety bond company will act as a guarantor for the principal’s compliance with the bond conditions

The Alcohol Tax Bond is also known by other names.  This can either be specific to the state or to the type of alcoholic beverage. Here are some examples:

  • Beverage Tax Bond
  • Liquor Bond
  • Liquor Drink Tax Bond

Alcohol Tax Bond by State  

Since each state – in addition to federal laws - has the power to regulate the distribution, manufacturing, or selling of alcoholic beverages within its jurisdiction, the obligations per alcohol tax bond, and the amount will vary.

 

Some states have stricter alcohol tax bond requirements than others.
