What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
An athlete agent recruits or solicits a student athlete to enter an agency contract. Georgia's Athlete Agents law (O.C.G.A. § 43-4A) conditions registration on a surety bond deposited with the Secretary of State — a guarantee that runs to athletic departments harmed by an agent's conduct.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Georgia (the obligee). The bond is conditioned to pay damages to any athletic department aggrieved by an act of the agent that violates O.C.G.A. § 43-4A-13 or would be grounds for revocation.
The bond must be at least $10,000 and stay in force for your registration. If you let it lapse, your registration is suspended until a new bond is obtained — and you may not act as an athlete agent during suspension. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your filing continuous.

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 $10,000 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 the Secretary of State. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to deposit with your athlete agent registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $10,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
