What is a surety bond in Arizona?
Most surety bonds in Arizona fall into three categories: contract bonds for construction projects, court bonds, and license and permit bonds for business applicants.
A surety bond is a three-party contract between an obligee (the party that requires the bond), a principal (the party that purchases the bond), and a surety (the party that issues the bond).
How much does a surety bond in Arizona cost?
The cost of a bond can vary based on a few different factors, including the type of bond, the amount required, and your credit score and finances. Your bond premium will be a small percentage of the total bond amount – typically 1-10%.
Generally, the stronger your credit score, the lower your rate will be. In some cases, however, we don’t even need to run your credit. Some bonds can be issued instantly at a flat rate.
