How Much Does a Maryland Surety Bond Cost?
A Maryland surety bond costs between $500 and $30,000, and it varies by bond amount type. For example, an auto dealer needs a bond up to $300,000. A collection agency in Maryland needs a $50,000 to $1,000,000 bond.
While your surety bond amount must comply with state regulations, you are not required to pay the full amount. Through a Maryland surety company, your bond is available at a premium. The premium is a fraction of the full bond amount and varies between 1% and 10%.
Several factors are reviewed to determine the premium rate. These include the applicant’s credit scores as well as financial assets and professional resume. Bonds are provided to more than 99% of our customers. Our Maryland surety company works with applicants with most credit scores.
If your score is at least 700, your premium rate will fall between 1% and 3% of the required bond amount. A 600 to 699 credit score qualifies the applicant for a rate between 3% and 5%. A premium rate of 5% to 10% is available for a credit score of 599 or lower.
