What it is and who needs it.
What the Statesboro license or permit bond covers
Statesboro's Tax & License Office administers occupational tax certificates and a range of business, occupation, and professional licenses under Chapter 18 of the city's Code of Ordinances. For certain categories, the city conditions the license on a surety bond filed with the City Clerk before it will issue or renew the certificate — the specific category is named on your notice.
One category is verifiable directly in the published code: dealers in precious metals and gems must file a $10,000 bond under Sec. 18-60 before the city will issue that license. Other regulated categories carry bonding requirements the Tax & License Office sets administratively as part of the occupational tax certificate process; we could not verify a single code section covering every category this filing applies to, so confirm your exact amount with the department.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Statesboro (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If a bonded business violates the ordinances or statutes governing its licensed conduct, the city can bring an action on the bond; if the surety pays a judgment, you repay the surety. It is not insurance for you. Occupational tax certificates expire December 31 each year, and this bond renews on the same annual cycle.
