What this bond does
The ticket-broker statute conditions security on compliance with the Act and Director's rules, avoiding fraud or extortion, and paying the described damages from misstatements, misrepresentation, fraud, deceit or unlawful acts or omissions by the applicant, agents or employees.
- Who needs it
- The actual business reselling admission tickets under the Division's ticket-broker registration process. This is not a performer-booking agency license, travel ticketing request or permission to operate an event.
- Who it protects
- The rule permits suit by the damaged person or the Division. The bond addresses the specified resale-business misconduct and damages; it should not be described as general event-cancellation insurance or a guarantee of every seller's transaction.

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 exact registered principal and business names.

Questions about this bond
Is this the same as a booking-agency bond?
No. The ticket-broker registration uses its own rule and condition. An agency arranging performer work has a different licensing-bond process.
Do I wait until the case is decided before providing another bond?
The reviewed registration rule requires a new and additional $10,000 bond within 30 days of the suit's commencement, not after judgment or payment. Follow the Division's current directions immediately.
Does the bond grant registration?
No. The Director-approved security accompanies the registration process. Issuance or checkout alone does not establish the right to conduct the business.
