CO preneed seller bonds.
$300. Five minutes.
A preneed contract seller collects prepayment for future funeral or burial services, and Colorado requires that money to be backed. This page issues the $10,000 version at $300 flat — 3% of the bond amount. Note: the Division of Insurance commonly requires a larger $100,000 bond, so confirm your required amount.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A preneed contract is a prepaid agreement for funeral or burial goods and services to be delivered in the future. Because consumers pay long before the services are rendered, Colorado requires sellers to back those obligations with a financial guarantee — a surety bond is one accepted form.
Preneed sellers are registered with the DORA Division of Insurance. The bond (or an equivalent net-worth showing) protects buyers if a seller fails to honor its preneed obligations, so prepaid funds are not lost. If a harmed buyer recovers against the bond and the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Confirm your required amount. Division of Insurance rules commonly call for a $100,000 bond (or $100,000 net worth) for preneed sellers, while this scraped bond is sized at $10,000 — a smaller or legacy figure may apply to your situation. We issue whatever amount your registration requires at a flat 3%; send us your DOI requirement and we’ll confirm.
