What is a Georgia liquor broker tax bond?
Georgia Alcoholic Beverage Code Section 3-4-22 requires individuals file a $2,500 surety bond before being licensed as a retail liquor broker or dealer in the state. The form is officially titled the “Liquor Broker Tax Bond Form” but is more commonly known as the “liquor broker tax bond,” “liquor broker bond,” or “liquor license bond.” By filing this bond, a retail liquor broker or dealer agrees to comply with all Georgia laws, rules, and regulations and promptly pay all taxes, license fees, rental charges, penalties, and interest to the Georgia Department of Revenue. If they fail to do so, their issuing surety company will pay valid claims up to the full $2,500 bond amount, which the liquor broker or dealer must reimburse in full.
