What it is and who needs it.
What the Bethlehem contractor bond covers
A contractor license bond is a guarantee to the Town of Bethlehem that you will perform licensed work in compliance with the Town’s ordinances and the conditions of your license or permit.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Bethlehem (the obligee), with the public protected. If you violate the licensing rules and cause harm, an affected party can recover against the bond.
The bond amount is set by the Town — confirm the figure on your application. The premium runs 0.5% of that amount, $100 minimum — no credit check up to $100,000, and most applications approve instantly, ready to file with your license.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Town of Bethlehem. Submit the executed bond with your contractor license or permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed if the Town insists.
What sets the price
The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
