About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the $10,000 compliance bond covers

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.

O.C.G.A. § 10-14 + Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. 590-3-5-.01Under the Georgia Cemetery and Funeral Services Act of 2000 (O.C.G.A. § 10-14) and the Secretary of State's rules (Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. 590-3-5-.01), a cemetery merchandise dealer demonstrates financial responsibility through a $10,000 compliance bond guaranteeing that work performed is in compliance with the cemetery's rules and regulations — or, as an alternative, a $25,000 bond posted directly with the Secretary of State. Confirm which form your situation requires.
