An insurance producer bond in Illinois costs between $100 and $5,000. The bond amount required by the state is between $2,500 and $50,000. However, you do not need to pay the full amount. Instead, you can meet the requirement by purchasing the bond from a surety company for a bond premium.

Your rate is determined by your credit scores, professional experience and financial assets. We provide bonds to applicants with most credit scores. If you apply with a 700 credit score, the rate is between 1% to 3%. A $50,000 surety bond in this case costs between $500 and $1,500.

The bond amount is 5% of the producer’s premiums over the last calendar year. The minimum bond amount is $2,500, and the maximum amount is $50,000.
