What this bond does

This bond supports the CCB licensing file for a business with the Residential Locksmith Services contractor endorsement. It backs covered final orders when a contractor fails to pay.

Who needs it
This bond is intended for individuals and business entities applying for or maintaining a residential locksmith services contractor license in Oregon. It is required for those who arrange for, undertake, or offer locksmith services on residential structures.
Who it protects
Consumers with a covered CCB final order can receive payment from the bond when the contractor fails to pay, up to the bond amount and subject to the board's process.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this 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.

Match the residential locksmith endorsement

CCB lists a $15,000 bond for the Residential Locksmith Services contractor endorsement. Use that endorsement when arranging the bond so it matches the licensing file.

The board also lists separate liability insurance for this endorsement. The bond, insurance evidence and any required locksmith certification each have their own place in the licensing process.

Use the CCB form and legal business name

CCB requires its own bond form. The names must match the legal business structure; corporations, LLCs, trusts and other registered entities must match their Oregon registration.

Review the issued bond for the bond company's original attorney-in-fact signature. Keep any attached power of attorney with it. Those are checks for the issued document, not items you need to obtain before starting the bond application.

Apply, then submit the licensing documents

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Have your legal business name, CCB number if assigned, endorsement and requested start date available.

After issuance, submit the bond with the CCB application rather than separately. CCB says the bond must reach it no later than sixty days after the bonding company signs it; it becomes valid when submitted and put into effect by the board.
