Munster, IN — Contractor License Bond
Munster's contractor registration packet accepts either a recorded $5,000 Lake County-and-cities/towns bond copy or a recorded, signed original $5,000 Town of Munster bond. Both routes require Lake County recording; the Town-only route also has an original-document delivery requirement.

What this bond does
Supply the Town's required proof of bond for general-contractor or subcontractor/specialty-contractor registration.
- Who needs it
- Contractors registering or renewing with Munster Community Development/Building Department.
- Who it protects
- The bond is one part of the contractor registration package. Keep it separate from liability insurance and workers' compensation evidence; a workers' compensation exemption is not a waiver of the 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.

Questions about this bond
Can a Town of Munster bond stay unrecorded?
Not under this packet's instructions. Both the County and Town routes require recording; the Town route additionally requires the signed original.
Can I email everything instead of delivering the Town original?
Do not assume the general email application route replaces the bond-specific instruction. The Town-original route expressly says mailed or hand delivered.
Does a workers' compensation exemption remove the bond requirement?
No such exemption is stated. The packet treats the State workers' compensation exemption as alternative insurance evidence, separate from proof of bond.
