Understanding Coverage
How a Surety Bond Works
A surety bond is a three-party agreement: you (the principal), the party requiring the bond (the obligee), and the surety company that backs it. Unlike insurance, a bond protects the obligee — if a claim is paid out, you're responsible for repaying the surety.
Bonds are commonly required by state agencies, courts, and clients before you can be licensed, permitted, or awarded certain contracts. The cost of a bond, called the premium, is typically a small percentage of the bond's total value.
