What it is and who needs it.
What the LP gas bond actually covers
Florida regulates the sale of liquefied petroleum gas under Chapter 527, administered by the FDACS Bureau of Liquefied Petroleum Gas Inspection. The chapter requires LP-gas licensees to carry proof of financial responsibility, and lets an applicant satisfy it with a good and sufficient indemnity bond payable to the Commissioner of Agriculture instead of insurance.
For a Category III operator — LP-gas cylinder exchange — the indemnity bond figure is $300,000. The bond is conditioned on the operator’s compliance with Chapter 527 and the department’s rules, and indemnifies and holds harmless any person from loss or damage caused by the operator’s failure to comply.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. A new bond is not required as long as the original remains sufficient and in force. Confirm your category and amount with the Bureau of LP Gas Inspection; pricing starts from $100, and a quick soft credit check may apply.
