## Surplus-Lines Tax and Stamping Office

**Reported tax rate:** 4% of total premium when Georgia is the home state Georgia charges 4% on the total premium written and received by a surplus-lines broker when Georgia is the insured’s home state. Current fee treatment is not described here because the Department’s latest fee bulletin could not be retrieved as readable text; ask your broker for the policy-declaration and tax breakdown. This record does not state a Georgia-specific guaranty-fund conclusion.[^4]
