Details for the RLI distributor application

Use Revenue's actual license-performance request to identify the instrument. The current standard form has distinct license-performance/tax-liability and tobacco-tax-stamp selections. Match the licensed products and requested undertaking rather than relying on the shorter catalog caption.

Current rule 560-8-3-.01 requires $5,000 for an initial application. Renewal security is one percent of the preceding license year's gross sales of the regulated products, with a $1,000 floor. The general bond page's $1,000 figure is not a universal amount, and the renewal calculation is not based on tax liability.

Nonresident applicants have separate reciprocity, records and security provisions under rule 560-8-3-.02. The Commissioner assigns their bond, with a $1,000 minimum. Have Revenue resolve your status and amount instead of assuming every resident calculation applies.

Licenses are obtained and renewed through Georgia Tax Center, separately for each business location. The model's instructions tie the undertaking to the licensed period and retain it for one year after expiration or revocation. Do not assume the license's June 30 date erases bond exposure.

The model permits principal, surety or obligee to cancel on sixty days' written notice to each other party at the last known address. Earlier liability remains. Complete the authorized principal/surety execution and seal fields and attach the surety signer's certified current authority; do not add a notarization condition absent from the requested instrument.

Purchase Now opens RLI's application in a new tab, with Georgia and this bond type already selected. Give RLI the current Revenue request, legal distributor, licensed locations, products, period and required amount before completing the application. Buying the bond does not grant a license, authorize product sales or resolve a separate stamp-credit request.
