What is a Taxable Fuel Bond?

All persons who are applying for a license as a jet fuel supplier are required to furnish a surety bond to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue.

The purpose of the surety bond is to ensure that the licensee will promptly pay the necessary taxes due including penalties and other charges.

If the licensee defaults on his or her tax obligations, the Obligee of the surety bond will file a bond claim to recover the necessary amount.

This requirement is in line with 830 64J.4.1 of the Code of Massachusetts Regulations.

 

What is the Taxable Fuel Bond amount?

The bond amount will vary per license applicant or license renewal. The bond amount should be equal to three times the average monthly tax liability of the jet fuel supplier. However, the bond amount will not be less than $10,000.

 

Initial Bond Amount for a Jet Supplier:
The bond amount can be determined by computing the average monthly tax liability based on the liability during the most current three-month period before the license applicant files for a license application.

The license applicant must then multiply the average monthly tax liability by three. The sum will be the initial bond amount.
