Frequently Asked Questions

The first question helps route your request correctly.
Some bonds are tied to a specific state, license, agency, city, county, court, project, permit, contract, or required filing. If the bond is connected to California in any way, select Yes.
If the bond is not connected to California, select No and continue through the bond request window.

That’s common.
Bond requirements can come from a license agency, permit office, city, county, court, project owner, general contractor, contract, or other organization. Start the request and include whatever details or documents you have.
If review is needed, a real person can help identify the next step.

The more complete the information, the better.
Helpful details can include the bond type, required bond amount, business name, license number, project information, obligee name, permit details, deadline, and any documents showing the bond requirement.
