Nevada Surety Bonds

When Do You Need A Surety Bond in Nevada?

The state of Nevada may require you to obtain a surety bond when you apply for a business license or if you are a contractor planning to work on public or private projects. Bonding is often a necessary requirement needed to secure the proper execution of a project and to ensure the compliance of a business.

There are three main categories of surety bonds in Nevada:

• To get licensed and start a business, you may be required to obtain a license bond. It guarantees that in performing your specific business activities you will comply with the regulations of Nevada.

• Before you can begin work or bid on a project, you will be asked to obtain a contract bond to guarantee that you will perform in compliance with state law and by the conditions of the construction contract you have been awarded.

• Nevada courts may require you to post a court bond in a number of circumstances, such as appealing a court decision or if you are appointed as guardian or fiduciary of someone’s estate or assets.

How Much Does a Surety Bond Cost?

The cost of your bond is equal to a fraction of the full bond amount. The rate is determined by the surety when you apply and depends primary on your personal credit score. License bonds applicants with a FICO score of 700 or more can expect rates between 1%-3%, while applicants with lower scores can expect to get bonded at rates from 3% to 10%.

Learn more about how bond premiums are determined and which other factors sureties consider before offering you a rate in our Surety Bond Cost guide.

Can I Get Bonded If I Have Bad Credit?

Applicants with lower credit scores, so-called bad credit, are usually offered higher rates, between 5%-15%, due to the greater risk involved in bonding them. Yet, you can improve your bond rate if you improve your credit score and financials. Find out more about our Bad Credit Surety Bonds program.
