An Arizona Motor Fuel Supplier bond is a type of surety bond required by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) for any business that wants to obtain a license to sell motor fuels in the state. The bond serves as a financial guarantee that the supplier will comply with all applicable laws and regulations, and that they will pay all taxes and fees due to the state.
