What Is an Oklahoma Surety Bond?
As in all U.S. states, many types of businesses are required to post an Oklahoma surety bond to ensure their legal operation in the state.
The purpose of surety bonds is to protect the state, and the general public, from fraudulent activities on the side of individuals and businesses. That’s why they work as a three-party contract. The entity that needs bonding is the principal, the obligee is the authority requiring it, and the surety is the bond underwriter.
Depending on the circumstances, you might be asked to post one of these three main kinds of Oklahoma surety bonds.
-
License bonds are required from auto dealers, freight brokers, mortgage brokers, and a variety of other trades when applying for a business license. They guarantee compliance with state regulations governing your field.
-
Contract bonds are needed when construction contractors want to bid on private or public projects. Their purpose is to ensure the timely and quality performance of contracts, and fulfillment of all other contract obligations.
-
Court bonds are not required that often. An Oklahoma court might ask you to post one if you want to appeal a judgment in front of an appellate court, or if you are appointed as a fiduciary for another person.

Questions about Surety Bonds in Oklahoma
How much does an Oklahoma surety bond cost?
The first and foremost factor that determines your surety bond cost is the Oklahoma surety bond amount that you are required to post. Depending on the business you are in, this amount might be fixed across all states, set individually in each state or city, or even determined on a case-by-case basis.
To understand how your bond price will be formulated, it’s important to differentiate between the bond amount and the bond premium. In fact, you only need to pay a fraction of the bond amount in order to get bonded. This percentage is called the bond premium. For the standard bonding market, the premium is in the range of 1%-4%.
How is this percentage decided? Your surety examines your personal and business financials to check the stability of your business. The most common factors are personal credit score and business financials. The premium is then decided on the basis of the risk involved in getting you bonded. If your finances are solid, you can expect a lower percentage.
Can I get an Oklahoma surety bond with bad credit?
