About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the motor fuel tax bond covers

Oklahoma collects its motor fuel excise tax at the supplier level under the Motor Fuel Tax Code, 68 O.S. § 500.1 et seq. Suppliers, permissive suppliers, and bonded importers license with the Oklahoma Tax Commission and post a surety bond on form BT-168 guaranteeing the tax they collect and remit.

For suppliers and bonded importers, the bond is generally not less than three months’ estimated tax liability, with a statutory floor of $100,000 and a cap of $2,000,000. In lieu of a bond, an applicant may show proof of financial responsibility — generally a $5,000,000 net worth. The Tax Commission can also require a purchaser that pays tax to a supplier to post a bond.

The bond stands behind the fuel tax you owe — if you fail to remit, the state can recover against it, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. Enter the amount the Commission set; pricing is 1% of that amount, with a $100 minimum. A soft credit check may apply and never affects your score.

Who requires this bond?The Oklahoma Tax Commission, as a condition of a motor fuel supplier, permissive supplier, or bonded importer license. It is filed on form BT-168.
Can I avoid the bond?Yes — in lieu of a bond, an applicant may show proof of financial responsibility, generally evidenced by a $5,000,000 net worth. Most licensees post the bond because it is far cheaper than tying up that capital.
Is there a credit check?A quick soft credit check may apply — it never affects your score and is never a hard inquiry. Because the supplier and importer amounts are large, an underwriter is more likely to run one on the bigger bonds.
What does the bond guarantee?That you remit the motor fuel tax you collect or owe the State of Oklahoma. If you fail to and the surety pays, you repay the surety — it is a guarantee, not insurance for you.
