About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the concession bond actually covers

Broward County grants rental car concession and lease agreements for operations at its facilities — most prominently the Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport and Port Everglades. Operators pay the County a concession fee (often a percentage of revenue against a minimum annual guarantee) plus rent on counter and ready-return space.

The County requires a surety bond as security for those concession fees and lease obligations. If an operator falls behind on its concession payments or lease rent, the County can recover the unpaid amounts against the bond.

You (the principal) post the bond, an A-rated surety stands behind it, and Broward County is the obligee. The bond is priced at 1% of the amount the County set, with a $100 minimum. Because the amounts are larger, it may also run one soft credit check for approval — never a hard inquiry.

The bond amount and form are set by the County in the concession agreement — confirm the required amount in your executed agreement.
