About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the transporter bond actually covers

Missouri’s Liquor Control Law (Chapter 311, RSMo) requires a license to transport intoxicating liquor in the state, administered by the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control. Under RSMo 311.420, an applicant for a transporter’s license files a bond in the penal sum of $1,000 with surety approved by the Supervisor of Alcohol and Tobacco Control.

The bond is conditioned that the transporter will not violate any provision of the liquor control laws or the regulations under them — and any violation works a forfeiture of the bond to the State of Missouri. It is a compliance guarantee tied to the lawful movement of liquor.

Note one exemption: carriers regulated by the state’s motor carrier and railroad safety authority under Chapters 387, 389, and 390 are not required to hold this transporter license. If you are unsure whether you fall under the exemption, confirm with Alcohol and Tobacco Control before buying.

RSMo 311.420Section 311.420, RSMo requires an applicant for a liquor transporter’s license to file a bond in the penal sum of one thousand dollars with sufficient surety approved by the Supervisor of Alcohol and Tobacco Control, conditioned that the transporter will not violate the liquor control laws; any violation works a forfeiture of the bond to the State of Missouri. Carriers regulated under Chapters 387, 389, and 390 are exempt from the license.
