What this bond does
This offering addresses individual private investigator, security guard or bail recovery licensing. It is not a defendant’s bail bond, an employee application or the separate Agency & Employees coverage choice.
- Who needs it
- Individuals applying for one of the listed New Hampshire occupational licenses and matching the Individual Only bond coverage to their actual application.
- Who it protects
- RSA 106-F:9 requires lawful, honest business conduct without committing or aiding crime. It permits suit by the Attorney General in the state’s name or by a person injured by breach of a condition designed to protect that person; it is not a blanket promise to cover every loss.

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
Does a $50,000 bond automatically cover three license types?
The statute adds $50,000 for each additional license type. The title lists possible occupations; it does not make one base-sum application sufficient for every combination.
Can I name only my trade name?
The posted individual application requires the bond in the individual’s name and separately asks for a DBA. Match both as applicable rather than replacing the person with a business label.
Should the bond start on the day I purchase it?
Use the licensing dates requested by State Police. The individual application expressly calls for the two-year bond to run concurrently with the license; purchase date is not a substitute for that direction.
