Kansas Statutes Chapter 19. Counties and County Officers § 19-2238. License fee; bond requirements

Each application for a transient merchant license shall be accompanied by a license fee of $250 and by a cash bond or a surety bond issued by a corporate surety authorized to do business in this state in the amount of $2,000 or 5% of the wholesale value of any goods, wares, merchandise or services to be offered for sale, whichever is less. The bond shall be in favor of the state of Kansas and shall assure the payment by the applicant of all taxes that may be due from the applicant to the state or any political subdivision of the state, the payment of any fines that may be assessed against the applicant or its agents or employees for violation of the provisions of this act and the satisfaction of all judgments that may be rendered against the transient merchant or its agents or employees in any cause of action commenced by any purchaser of goods, wares, merchandise or services within one year from the date of the sale by such transient merchant. The bonds shall be maintained so long as the transient merchant conducts business in the county and for a period of one year after the termination of such business and shall be released only when the transient merchant furnishes satisfactory proof to the county clerk that such merchant has satisfied all claims of purchasers of goods, wares, merchandise or services from such merchant and that all state and local sales taxes and other taxes have been paid.
