Mississippi — Check Cashing License - NMLS Bond
Mississippi check cashers apply and renew through NMLS. DBCF lists a $10,000 starting security requirement and requires electronic surety bonds. The electronic undertaking is perpetual, while the license follows a January 1–December 31 year; do not order a replacement annual paper form solely because renewal is approaching.

- Who it protects
- Section 75-67-509(c) makes the security payable to Mississippi for faithful performance of the licensed business's duties and prompt payment of judgments for charges or other claims arising from violations of the Check Cashers Act. It requires Commissioner approval before the undertaking is valid.

Questions about this bond
Does annual license renewal require a new one-year paper bond?
No. DBCF's electronic guide says the undertaking is perpetual and hard copies should no longer be mailed. The check-casher license still renews annually. Maintain the required electronic security and complete the separate NMLS renewal.
Is the additional-location net-worth requirement the bond calculation?
No. Net worth and security are different requirements. Give the producer all branch and rider information so the electronic filing represents the current total obligation; do not substitute the $5,000 net-worth increment for the required security.
