GA liquor importer tax bonds.
$100 flat.
A Georgia distilled-spirits importer files a $5,000 tax bond with the Department of Revenue’s Alcohol & Tobacco Division, guaranteeing the liquor excise taxes due on the spirits it brings into the state. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price — and the application collects no credit information.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Georgia’s Alcoholic Beverage Code (O.C.G.A. Title 3, Chapter 4) conditions a distilled-spirits license on a tax bond filed with the Department of Revenue’s Alcohol & Tobacco Division. For liquor importers the standard tax bond is $5,000, on the Department’s standard tax-bond form.
The bond guarantees the importer will promptly pay all sums due as taxes, license fees, penalties, and interest arising from importing distilled spirits, plus the state’s costs of collection. The Department of Revenue is the obligee and recovers against the bond if excise taxes go unpaid.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the state, you repay the surety. Note that wholesalers, manufacturers, and distillers can carry different (often higher) bond amounts; the $5,000 figure is the importer tax bond. Confirm the amount on your Department of Revenue application.
