A misdemeanor can potentially lead to the revocation of a surety bond, depending on the terms of the bond and the nature of the offense. Surety companies often assess the risk associated with the bondholder, and a misdemeanor may be viewed as an increased risk. However, the specific impact on the bond will vary by jurisdiction and the conditions set by the surety company. It's essential to review the bond agreement and consult with a legal expert for personalized advice.


What do you do to be bonded?

Your first step in obtaining a surety bond is to contact a surety agent that is familiar with the bonding process. There will be an underwriting process associated with obtaining the surety bond but the surety agent will be able to assist you with more detailed information. Before the surety will give you a bond, you will have to go through a rigorous prequalification process because surety (unlike insurance) is a financial backing. It is more like a credit facility than an insurance policy. Surety companies will therefore thoroughly examine you and your company to ensure that you can perform as stated in your contract or license.

What are surety benefits?

If you are asking what are the benefits built into a surety bond then the answer is the surety bond guarantees a specific performance or amount up to the penalty amount of the bond. If you are asking what the benefits of surety are then surety provides the recipient of the surety bond a level of assurance that the person or business entity providing the bond is qualified to perform the required act. This is accomplished by the surety's investigation of the Principal and evidenced by their agreement to issue the surety bond that encumbers the surety to the amount of the bond's penalty.

How would you determine how much of a surety bond is needed?

As a principal at SuretyBonds.com -- one of the nation's leading surety bond producers -- this is a question that I answer frequently. Because you posted in the Cars & Vehicles category, I assume that you need an auto dealer/motor vehicle dealer surety bond for your state. The best way to find out the required amount of your surety bond is to contact your state's government agency that handles licensing and registration for your industry. For example, if you're an auto dealer in Arizona, you'll contact the Arizona Department of Transportation. No matter what type of surety bond you need and what state you'll practice business in, inquiring with the government agency about the required bond amount is always a great place to start. Often, these government agencies will have this information on their websites. Once you know your required bond amount, you can contact a reputable surety bond producer -- such as SuretyBonds.com -- to purchase your bond. The amount you pay for your bond will depend on your credit score, the type of bond you need, the state for which you need the bond and a few other factors.


Is surety bond refundable?

An instance where a surety bond premium may be refunded is if the obligee (usually a state entity) will not issue you (the principal) a license for a particular profession in which you have applied for and a bond was purchased in advance of the application of a license. For instance if you are a mortgage broker in any given state and you may have had a past felony criminal record, the state may deny your application for a license based on this information. As a condition of the license you may have already purchased the surety bond and now will be unable to file the bond with the state since you can't get the license. Your premium may be refunded with the return of the original bond.
