What it is and who needs it.
What the fur dealer bond guarantees
Georgia licenses resident fur dealers through the Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division. Under O.C.G.A. 27-3-70, an applicant must post a $5,000 forfeiture bond in favor of the State of Georgia (or a cash bond in the same amount), conditioned on faithful compliance with the state's fur-dealer laws and the board's regulations.
The bond is a compliance guarantee: if a dealer violates the fur laws or DNR regulations, the Commissioner can recover on the bond for the breach. The statute provides that on a full forfeiture the dealer's license is suspended until a new bond is filed for the rest of the license period.
It is not insurance for you — if the bond is forfeited, you repay the surety. The bond runs one year, matching the license period. We issue it at our $275 minimum with no credit check.
