MD boxing & wrestling tax bonds.
From $100. Enter your amount.
A Maryland promoter of boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, or MMA events must guarantee the State athletic tax on the event. Under Business Regulation Title 4, Subtitle 3, that means a tax bond — a minimum of $1,000 — so the State is paid even if the promoter isn’t. Pricing is 1% of your bond amount, with a $100 minimum, and approval runs a soft credit pull only, never a hard inquiry.

What it is and who needs it.
What the tax bond actually guarantees
Maryland regulates professional boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, and MMA through the State Athletic Commission under Business Regulation Title 4, Subtitle 3. Promoters of these events owe a State athletic tax on the event (under the Tax–General Article), and the State wants that tax guaranteed.
The boxing and wrestling tax bond backs that obligation: it ensures the State receives the tax payment even if the promoter fails to remit it. The Department of Labor administers the tax bond requirement, with a minimum amount of $1,000. This is separate from the promoter’s expense bond, which backs amounts owed to event participants.
It is not insurance for you. If the State draws on the bond for unpaid tax and the surety pays, you repay the surety. Promoters who file and pay their athletic tax on time treat the bond as a licensing formality. Pricing is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, with a soft credit pull only, never a hard inquiry.
