Delaware — Combative Sports Event Bond
Delaware requires the completed promoter bond on file before issuing a combative sports event permit. Upload it with the permit application in DELPROS. Bring the requested sum and dates, then arrange the signatures for your entity type; simply buying a bond does not complete that filing.

What this bond does
The prescribed form secures faithful performance of promoter duties under Delaware's combative sports rules. It expressly includes contractual obligations to contestants, managers and other licensees, plus license and permit fees. Its remaining condition requires compliance with applicable laws, ordinances and rules and protection of the obligee against permit-related loss or damage.
- Who needs it
- Promoters applying to Delaware's Division of Professional Regulation for a combative sports event permit. The programme covers amateur and professional boxing and MMA as well as combative sports entertainment. Match the actual promoted event and legal applicant, not an individual fighter's registration or an unrelated gaming role.
- Who it protects
- The form binds the promoter and authorized surety to Delaware and the Division of Professional Regulation. The full promise includes both promoter obligations and the obligee's loss or damage from issuing the permit. It does not replace separate safety, medical or insurance submissions, and a filed bond is only part of the permit decision.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Can the permit be issued before the bond arrives?
The Division's form says the bond must be on file before permit issuance. Its instructions require uploading the completed document with the DELPROS permit application. A provider receipt is not the required executed filing.
Who signs for a corporate promoter?
The president or vice-president must sign, with the signature attested by the secretary, treasurer or an assistant in either office. The form's partnership instructions instead require listing and signatures of all partners.
Does an out-of-state surety need another signature?
When the corporate surety is out of state and signs outside Delaware, the form requires a qualified Delaware resident agent's countersignature. If an attorney-in-fact signs for the surety, attach the power of attorney with a certification date on or after the bond date.
