Georgia requires every beauty pageant operator to maintain a $10,000 bond (or cash bond) payable to the Governor, for the benefit of anyone who paid an entry fee. Pricing runs from $100, and most applicants qualify at or near the minimum — the statutory amount is $10,000, and the field is editable if yours differs.
















No underwriting queue for the standard pageant bond — enter your amount, pay, and you have the executed bond. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount ($10,000 by statute), and the effective date — that is the entire application.
Most applications approve instantly and the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. If a check runs, it is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Keep the executed bond as the statute requires for the benefit of your entrants. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever you need them.
Georgia's Beauty Pageants article (O.C.G.A. §§ 10-1-830 through 10-1-838) protects people who pay to enter a pageant. A beauty pageant operator must either maintain a $10,000 surety bond (or cash bond) payable to the Governor, or place all contestants' fees in an escrow account that cannot be touched until the pageant is over.
The bond runs for the benefit of any person who paid an entry fee and is conditioned to pay losses, damages, and expenses sustained by reason of any violation of the title — for example, an operator who cancels a pageant and keeps the entry fees.
The statutory amount is $10,000. Enter that figure — pricing starts from $100, and the application collects no credit information — and if you were asked for a different amount, the field is editable.
Submit the application with your bond amount — the executed pageant bond is generated instantly, ready to hold as the statute requires.
