What it is and who needs it.
What the supplier bond actually covers
New Jersey taxes motor fuel under the Motor Fuel Tax Act (N.J.S.A. 54:39-101 et seq.), administered by the Division of Taxation. A licensed supplier — the party that holds fuel in the terminal system and is responsible for the tax as it moves — must post a bond securing the tax it collects and remits.
The bond is a tax guarantee: it stands behind your faithful performance of the duties in the Act, principally the timely and full payment of motor fuel tax. The Division sizes the bond to your liability — in practice often around three times your greatest monthly tax over the preceding twelve months — so it scales with your volume.
If you fail to remit, the Division can recover the shortfall against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the Division set, pricing from $100 — the application collects no credit information, and if a check does run it is a soft pull that never affects your score.
