Who needs to file a New York Cigarette Stamp Bond?

The New York Cigarette Stamp Bond is required by the New York Commissioner of Finance. In accordance with Chapter 13 of Title 11 of the Administrative Code of the City of New York.  The bond states that the bondholder will pay to the Commissioner of Finance of the City of New York, its fiscal agent, or any fiscal sub-agents for all stamps purchased. Including penalties and interest, within 30 days after the date of the purchase. The bond amount will vary from business to business.

The cigarette stamp bond may be required before a business can be licensed to distribute cigarettes in the state. A business may apply as a wholesale or retail dealer. According to the Administrative Code Title 11 Chapter 13, a wholesale cigarette license must be filed with the commissioner of finance. A retail cigarette stamp license must be filed with the commissioner of consumer affairs.
