How Much Does a Delaware Surety Bond Cost?

A Delaware surety bond costs between $150 and $20,000, depending on the trade. For example, the required bond amount for an auto dealer is $25,000. For a credit services organization, a $15,000 bond is needed. 

Rather than pay the required bond amount out of your pocket, you can purchase your bond for a premium price. Bonds are available through an authorized Delaware surety company.

The premium cost is a percentage of the required bond amount. The rate, which is 1% to 10%, depends on key factors like the applicant’s assets, experience and credit. 

If you purchase your Delaware surety bond from our company, your rate will be 1% to 3% with a 700 or better credit score. The rate for a 600 to 699 credit score is 3% to 5%. For a 599 credit score or below, the rate will fall between 5% and 10%.
