Or call (877) 477-7578
A distributor tax bond secures payment of Arizona distributor taxes, penalties, and related obligations to the state.
The surety bond guarantees that the principal will perform the duties required under A.R.S. Title 42 distributor and luxury tax bonding provisions as applicable up to the penal sum.
A claim may arise if the principal fails to comply with the bonded Arizona obligation or causes covered loss to the obligee or protected parties.
If a claim is valid, the surety may pay up to the bond penalty according to the bond terms; the principal remains liable to reimburse the surety.
Amount, premium, term, and the authority that requires this filing.
Distributors of taxed commodities (for example liquor wholesalers under A.R.S. § 42-3351 and other ADOR distributor classes) need the bond when the statute or department requires it.
Use the ADOR form for your distributor class and amount fixed by statute or department estimate of tax liability.
Share your license type, court order, or obligee form and the exact penal sum required by Arizona Department of Revenue (ADOR).
We review credit and filing details, then quote premium options through licensed surety markets.
Once approved, we issue the bond for delivery to State of Arizona or for your Arizona filing package.
The amount is Department-fixed — often a multiple of estimated monthly tax with a statutory minimum (confirm class), as set under A.R.S. Title 42 distributor and luxury tax bonding provisions as applicable and confirmed with Arizona Department of Revenue (ADOR).
The obligee is typically State of Arizona. Always match the exact name on the Arizona form.
Many Arizona filings can be underwritten the same day when documents and credit are complete; complex amounts may take longer.
Not always. Premium and collateral options vary by credit and bond size — ask for markets that still write the risk.
Most bonds renew on the term shown (1 Year). Keep continuity so your Arizona license or filing does not lapse.
