What is this bond?

The Georgia Subcontractor Sales and Use Tax Bond is a surety bond that ensures subcontractors pay all applicable state sales and use taxes related to their construction projects. It serves as a financial guarantee that the state will receive its owed tax revenue from materials and equipment utilized by the subcontractor.

Who needs it?

This bond is generally needed by subcontractors operating in Georgia who do not have an existing tax clearance or continuous tax record with the state. Non-resident subcontractors or those hired for specific public and large private projects are often required to secure this coverage.

Why is it required?

The obligee requires this bond to protect the state against unpaid tax liabilities generated during a construction project. It ensures that neither the state nor the primary general contractor is left financially responsible if a subcontractor fails to remit their required sales and use taxes.
