This is the $10,000 compliance bond a Georgia cemetery merchandise dealer posts under the Cemetery and Funeral Services Act, guaranteeing that work performed in a perpetual care cemetery follows the cemetery’s rules. Pricing runs from $100, and most applicants qualify at or near the minimum.
















Fixed-amount bonds are simple. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section.
Most applications approve instantly and the bond issues right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file as evidence of financial responsibility. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Georgia regulates cemetery and funeral merchandise dealers through the Secretary of State under the Cemetery and Funeral Services Act of 2000 (O.C.G.A. § 10-14). A merchandise dealer who installs or delivers in a perpetual care cemetery must show financial responsibility — one accepted form is a $10,000 compliance bond.
Under the Secretary of State's rules (Rule 590-3-5-.01), the $10,000 compliance bond guarantees that the work performed is in compliance with the cemetery's rules and regulations. It protects the cemetery and the public against a dealer who installs improperly or violates cemetery requirements.
This is the lower-tier filing. As an alternative, a dealer may post a $25,000 bond directly with the Secretary of State — that is a separate page. Pick the one your situation calls for; this one is priced from $100, and the application collects no credit information.
