The City of Boise licenses private patrol agents and conditions that license on a fixed $2,500 surety bond filed with the City Clerk. At our flat 3% rate the math lands below the floor, so it is $275 flat — the minimum premium — and there is no credit check.
















Municipal license bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here is the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. No financials, no credit check section.
Small fixed license bonds like this issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Boise private patrol agent license. Wet-ink original on request.
$2,500 bond × 3% = $75, which falls below our $275 minimum — so it is $275 flat per term. Multi-year if you want it.
A private patrol agent bond is a conduct guarantee the City of Boise requires before it licenses someone to provide private security or patrol services in the city. The City conditions the license on a fixed $2,500 surety bond filed with the City Clerk.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety, and the City of Boise (the obligee). If you violate the City’s private patrol ordinance or cause harm in the course of licensed patrol work, a harmed party can recover against the bond up to $2,500.
The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the license. We track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your Boise patrol license never lapses over an expired bond.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond does not have one.
