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
Who is the bond payable to?
The official form names the State of New Jersey. Use the Committee’s required recipient wording rather than substituting a customer or local municipality.
Does the bond purchase add a locksmith or alarm license?
No. Match the activity written into the form to the license application. The combined product label does not grant authority to perform either service.
What expiry date should I use?
The Committee’s posted bond form shows January 31, 2029. Match the currently applicable form and licensing instructions before applying; the public purchase option does not independently state a term.
