How do I find out the type of Surety Bond I need?
When looking to get a quote for a Surety Bond, knowing the type of bond you need is important. With thousands of Surety Bond types available, you don’t want to purchase the wrong type that doesn’t meet the Obligee’s (the entity requesting the bond) requirements. If you are unsure of the type of Surety Bond and/or bond amount you need, reaching out to the Obligee to obtain a copy of the bond form is the best solution. The bond form will state the bond type and necessary amount (or how to calculate the necessary amount) you need.
For your convenience, we’ve listed many of the common types of Texas Surety Bonds below.

Make sure you speak with your local Texas DMV to verify your vehicle is eligible for a Bonded Title before purchasing a Texas Certificate of Title Surety Bond. The bond amount the state requires is 1.5 times the value of your vehicle. Although, you’re not expected to pay the full bond amount. Typically, our clients pay $100 for their Texas Lost Title Bonds.

How much does it cost to get a Surety Bond in Texas?
There are few factors to consider when determining the cost of your Surety Bond. These factors include the type of bond, bond amount and possibly your credit. A larger premium is expected for bonds with a larger bond amount since more risk is involved with the coverage. However, many of our Texas bonds start as low as $100.
Some Surety Bonds require a soft-pull on your credit to determine approval and cost. Fortunately, a soft-pull on your credit does not adversely affect your credit score. You should expect your bond premium to be between 1%-5% of the bond amount if approved with good credit.
Can I get approval for a Surety Bond with bad credit?
Yes! Having bad credit doesn’t automatically disqualify you from being approved for a Surety Bond. If you’re approved with non-standard credit, typically quotes range between 5%-15% of the bond amount. Although, many of our bonds do not require a credit check, meaning your credit score doesn’t affect your approval or bond premium.
Don’t be discouraged to request a Surety Bond quote due to bad credit. We’re happy to work with you to find an affordable quote for your bond, today.
