What is this bond?

The Maryland Promotor's Boxing and Wrestling Tax bond is a financial guarantee required for promoters of combat sports events in the state. It guarantees that the promoter will accurately report ticket sales and pay all applicable event taxes to the state. If the promoter fails to remit the required taxes, the bond provides a mechanism for the state to recover the lost revenue.

Who needs it?

Individuals or businesses acting as event promoters for boxing, sparring, kickboxing, or wrestling matches in Maryland typically need this bond. Anyone responsible for collecting ticket revenue and remitting the associated taxes must secure this coverage before hosting an event. Requirements can vary, so promoters should verify their specific needs with the issuing agency.

Why is it required?

The state requires this bond to protect public funds and ensure strict compliance with Maryland's tax regulations. It acts as a safeguard against promoters who might underreport event attendance or fail to pay their required tax obligations. By mandating the bond, the state transfers the financial risk of unpaid taxes to a surety company.
