Current as of March 28, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(a) The General Assembly finds that because of the temporary nature of the business conducted by transient merchants, consumers in the State of Arkansas are not likely to be able to obtain proper contact information to resolve disputes with, serve legal process upon, or satisfy monetary judgments against transient merchants doing business in the State of Arkansas.

(b) It is the purpose and intent of this subchapter to:

(1) Provide the consumers of the State of Arkansas with contact information regarding potential monetary recourse against transient merchants; and

(2) Provide that the registration fees and bonding requirements in this subchapter for transient merchants shall be minimum registration fees and bonding requirements and shall not be construed to limit or restrict the authority of counties, cities, and towns in the state to levy additional license fees and to require additional bonding for transient merchants engaged in business in counties, cities, and towns.
