About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Delaware regulates telemarketers under the Telemarketing Registration and Fraud Prevention Act (6 Del. C. ch. 25A). A registrant must file a $50,000 surety bond with the Consumer Protection Unit of the Department of Justice — it's a consumer-protection guarantee standing behind the money customers pay in telemarketed transactions.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Consumer Protection Director (the obligee), with your customers as the protected parties. The bond pays customers all moneys that become due and owing for violations of the chapter, and the surety's total liability can't exceed the $50,000 face amount.

The bond is a condition of your registration and, by statute, stays in effect for a period after you stop operating in the State. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $50,000 filing continuous. A letter of credit is the only alternative the statute allows.

6 Del. C. § 2503ADelaware Code Title 6, Chapter 25A (Telemarketing Registration and Fraud Prevention), Section 2503A requires every registrant to file a $50,000 corporate surety bond with the Consumer Protection Director, conditioned to pay customers all moneys due and owing for violations of the chapter, with aggregate surety liability capped at the bond amount. A letter of credit may be accepted in lieu of the bond, and the security remains in effect for 3 years after the registrant ceases operating in the State.

After you buy

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 $50,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

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 your registration. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Consumer Protection Unit registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $250 at the $50,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
