What Are Louisiana Alcohol Tax Bonds? 

Louisiana alcoholic beverage tax bonds ensure that liquor and beer wholesalers in Louisiana pay all excise taxes and fees associated with the Alcoholic Beverage Tax Law. These surety bonds protect consumers and the state by guaranteeing that alcohol-related companies: 

  • Pay all taxes, interests and fees owed to the Department of Revenue 
  • Follow all rules and licensing regulations for alcohol sales 

If a wholesaler or manufacturer fails to meet these requirements, the surety will provide financial compensation to any affected parties. 

How Much Do Alcohol Tax Bonds Cost in Louisiana?

The $10,000 Louisiana alcoholic beverage tax bond costs a flat rate of $120 for all applicants. A Louisiana beer tax bond is typically $100 for $10,000 of coverage.

How Does a Louisiana Alcohol Tax Bond Work? 

A Louisiana alcohol tax bond protects the state and the public by creating a legally-binding contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: The company or individual purchasing the bond 
  2. Obligee: The Louisiana Department of Revenue requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the alcohol tax bond

If the principal breaks the bond terms and creates damages, the obligee or consumers can file a claim for reimbursement. The surety will investigate and pay out valid claims. However, the principal must ultimately repay the surety. 

Who Needs an Alcohol Tax Bond in Louisiana? 

All manufacturers or wholesalers of alcoholic beverages or beer must file a $10,000 surety bond, letter of credit or certificate of deposit with the Louisiana Department of Revenue (LDR) for each type of permit held.

If you sell or distribute alcohol in other states, we also offer alcohol tax bonds nationwide.
