What is this bond?

A Colorado Mileage and Fuel Tax Bond is a type of commercial surety bond that guarantees a motor carrier will accurately report their mileage and remit all applicable taxes. It serves as a financial safeguard for the state, ensuring that fuel and mileage taxes are paid in full and on time.

Who needs it?

Commercial motor carriers, trucking companies, and individuals operating qualified commercial vehicles within Colorado typically need this bond. The requirement generally applies to those who are subject to the state's fuel tax and mileage reporting systems.
