What this bond does

The bond secures the officeholder's faithful performance of the duties described in the accepted instrument.

Who needs it
Florida officials and staff arranging a requested bond for a specific public position.
Who it protects
The named obligee receives the bond's protection. It does not insure the official personally against all liability arising from public service.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

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.

Use the request for this position

Identify the county, municipality, state agency or other public body involved. If you are moving to a different position, check the new office's bond instructions instead of carrying over the former position's amount and recipient.

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Complete the application with the requested dates. After issuance, follow the receiving office's signing, approval and delivery directions.

No amount is specified here. Use the amount directed for your office.

Does the application complete filing?

No. Submit the issued bond through the receiving office's process after issuance.
