What it is and who needs it.
What the title producer bond actually covers
The District licenses title insurance producers through the Department of Insurance, Securities and Banking (DISB). Under D.C. Code § 31-5041.02, a producer must demonstrate financial responsibility, and a surety bond of at least $200,000 is one piece of that requirement.
The bond is a consumer-and-public-protection guarantee standing behind how you handle escrow, settlement, and premium funds. If a producer mishandles closing money or violates DC title insurance law, a harmed party can recover against the bond up to its limit.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the District (the obligee), with your clients as the protected parties. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. DISB separately expects an errors-and-omissions policy and a fidelity bond as part of the same financial-responsibility filing; confirm the exact figures on your DISB checklist.
