What it is and who needs it.
What the health spa sales bond covers
The District’s consumer-protection law at D.C. Code § 28-3817 governs health spa sales — cash or credit sales in which a spa agrees to provide goods or services for more than 30 days. Before a spa makes any such sale, it must file a surety bond (or an equivalent letter of credit or cash) with the Department of Licensing and Consumer Protection (DLCP).
The bond is payable for the benefit of members injured if the spa closes or fails to deliver what they paid for. The standard amount is $50,000; a spa that states in writing it will make sales to no more than 100 persons may post a reduced $25,000 bond, provided it honors that limit.
It is a three-party arrangement: the spa (the principal), the surety carrier, and the District, with members as the protected parties. It is not insurance for the spa — if the surety pays a claim, the spa repays the surety. Proof of the bond is filed annually. Enter the figure that applies and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
