What Is a Surety Bond? 

A surety bond is a financial guarantee that ensures specific obligations will be fulfilled according to agreed-upon terms. These bonds protect consumers and government entities from fraud, malpractice, or non-compliance. They’re often required for businesses to obtain licenses or permits, ensuring accountability and trustworthiness.

Who Needs a Surety Bond? Many industries and individuals across the U.S. require surety bonds, including:

• Contractors: To meet licensing requirements and guarantee project completion.

• Auto Dealers: To ensure compliance with state regulations.

• Notaries: To protect the public from notarial misconduct.

• Freight Brokers: To secure payment obligations to shippers and carriers.

• Business Owners: For various licenses, such as alcohol permits or employment agencies.

​

Whether you’re starting a new business or maintaining compliance, our team can help you get bonded quickly.

​

How Much Does a Surety Bond Cost? The cost of a surety bond typically ranges from 1% to 10% of the total bond amount. For example, if you need a $10,000 bond, your premium could be as low as $100. Several factors determine the exact cost, including:

​

• Bond Amount: Higher bond amounts generally have higher premiums.

• Bond Type: Some bonds have a fixed rate, while others may require detailed underwriting.

• Personal Credit Score: A higher credit score can help secure a lower premium.

• Professional Experience: Established businesses or professionals may qualify for better rates.

• Business Financials: Strong financial stability can reduce risk and lower costs.

• Assets & Liquidity: Demonstrating sufficient assets can help reduce premiums.
