What Is a Nevada Title 32 Sales Tax Bond?
Nevada Revised Statute Title 32 requires certain individuals and businesses to file a surety bond to guarantee payment of taxes.
There are three Title 32 performance bond forms:
- Sales Tax Bond (Form BND-SUR-01.01)
- Cigarette Tax Bond (Form EXC-CIG-BND-01.01)
- Liquor Tax Bond (Form BND-SUR-01.01)
All three bonds require individuals to pay taxes, interest, and penalties to the Nevada Department of Taxation promptly when due.
Who Needs a Title 32 Sales Tax Bond?
There are three main business categories that need to file a Nevada Title 32 performance bond:
- Tobacco product retailers, wholesalers and nonparticipating manufacturers
- Licensed alcohol importers, brewers or wine makers
- Any other retailer with a history of delinquent tax payments at the Department of Taxation’s discretion
The DOT will determine the exact bond form and amount you need.

How Does a Nevada Title 32 Tax Bond Work?
By filing this bond, you enter a legally-binding contract with two other parties.
| Bond Party | Description |
|---|---|
| 1) Principal | The retailer filing the bond |
| 2) Obligee | The Nevada Department of Taxation |
| 3) Obligee | The issuing surety provider |
By filing this bond, you agree to pay all taxes and other fines due to the state. If you fail to do so, the surety will pay valid claims up to your full bond amount, which you must reimburse.

The Nevada Department of Taxation requires this bond to guarantee sales tax payments are made to the state. If you sell or distribute alcohol in other states, we also offer alcohol tax bonds nationwide.
