Wisconsin — Cigarette Tax Bond
Wisconsin's A-133 allows only one tax type per surety bond. For a cigarette-tax request, identify that category and the Department of Revenue's assigned security; a tobacco/vapor or sales-tax checkbox is not an interchangeable selection.

What this bond does
A-133 supports the Department's cigarette-tax security demand. The posted guidance requires distributor security before permit issuance and identifies a particular calculation for new cigarette distributors.
- Who needs it
- Cigarette businesses responding to a Wisconsin Revenue security request, including new distributors. Municipal retail licensing, tobacco/vapor permits and other state tax accounts are separate matters.
- Who it protects
- A-133 binds the principal and surety jointly and severally to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue. Its condition includes compliance with the indicated statutes and prompt payment of taxes, interest and penalties already due or becoming due. Select the cigarette category rather than assuming the multi-purpose form covers every tax account.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Can one A-133 cover cigarettes, vapor and sales tax?
The posted form allows only one tax type per bond. Match the cigarette request to its own category and obtain any separately required security for other accounts.
Is the sixty-day period the time to pay a claim?
No. Sixty days after receipt is the surety-withdrawal period. The form separately permits recovery from the surety upon ten days' notice when the principal is delinquent.
Does withdrawal erase tax assessed afterward?
It does not erase covered liability for tax incurred before the withdrawal becomes effective, even if the assessment comes later.
