What Is a Surety Bond?

A surety bond is a written agreement that guarantees you’ll fulfill certain obligations; like following the law, completing a job, or paying what you owe.

Unlike traditional insurance, a bond doesn’t protect you, it protects the other party (like the state, a client, or the public) if you fail to meet your obligations.

There are many different types of bonds, but they all involve three parties:

1. The Principal – That’s you or your business.

2. The Obligee – The person or entity requiring the bond.

3. The Surety – The company that issues the bond and backs your promise.
