Peddler ($1,000) Bond - Braselton, GA in Georgia

Brief Summary

The $1,000 bond is a small, fast piece of the Braselton peddler license file. You pay a modest premium, the surety issues the bond, and it goes in with your application to the Town of Braselton so you can start selling.

The Town of Braselton, Georgia licenses peddlers itself, separate from the counties the town sits in, and issues two peddler licenses: Mobile Transient Peddler and Temporary Seasonal Peddler. A $1,000 surety bond in favor of the Town of Braselton is part of that licensing. Applications are handled by the town's Planning and Development office.

Detailed Information About the Georgia Peddler ($1,000) Bond:

The town licenses you, not the county

Braselton spreads across parts of Jackson, Gwinnett, Hall and Barrow counties, which leads many sellers to apply in the wrong place. If you are selling inside the town limits, the license comes from the Town of Braselton. The town's Taxes and Licensing office issues two types of peddler license, a Mobile Transient Peddler license and a Temporary Seasonal Peddler license, and publishes its own Braselton Peddler Regulations. Pick the license that fits how long and where you will sell.

What the bond guarantees

The $1,000 bond guarantees that the peddler will follow the town's peddler regulations and other applicable law while selling in Braselton. If a customer or the town suffers a loss because the peddler breaks those rules, a claim can be made against the bond up to $1,000. The surety pays a valid claim and the peddler repays the surety.
