What are the requirements in order to be a Motor Fuel Distributor in the state of Delaware?

If you wish to import gasoline products into Delaware and use, sell or distribute them, you will need to obtain a license from the Department of Transportation. In order to get that license, you will need to complete the Motor Fuel Distributor License Application, which you can find on the DE Department of Transportation’s website. 

In addition to this application and the required $10 processing fee, you will also need to obtain a Delaware Motor Fuel Distributor Bond, issued by a company licensed in Delaware.
