What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A city trade-license bond is a compliance guarantee to the municipality. The City of Montgomery wants a financial backstop that licensed gas fitters and plumbers follow the city's plumbing and gas-fitting codes and license conditions.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Montgomery (the obligee). If a tradesperson violates the city's code or license terms and the city or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the $5,000 bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the city license, so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out.
