What is this bond?

The Indiana Special Fuel License for Permissive Supplier Bond is a financial guarantee required by the state for out-of-state fuel suppliers. It guarantees that the supplier will accurately report and remit all required taxes on special fuels, such as diesel, that are destined for Indiana. This bond protects the state's tax revenue from fraud, underpayment, or failure to file appropriate returns.

Who needs it?

This bond is typically required for out-of-state fuel suppliers who elect to collect and remit Indiana special fuel taxes on products transported into the state. Businesses that operate bulk storage facilities outside Indiana but sell fuel destined for Indiana use this bond to maintain their permissive supplier status. Exact licensing requirements vary, so applicants should verify their specific status with the Indiana Department of Revenue.

Why is it required?

The Indiana Department of Revenue requires this bond to safeguard public funds and ensure compliance with state tax regulations. It provides a financial safety net for the state in case a permissive supplier defaults on their tax obligations or fails to submit required reports. By mandating this bond, the state ensures a reliable mechanism to recover lost fuel tax revenue.
