If you seek to operate under a license or permit pursuant to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law and the said State Liquor Authority, Part 81 of Subtitle B of Title 9 you must file a New York liquor license bond with the New York Liquor Authority. The bond prescribed by the statute must accompany the application for the license or permit. The liquor bond serves as a guarantee that the permittee will not suffer a violation of the code.
