About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A City of Brazil contractor license bond is a compliance-and-public-protection guarantee. Brazil conditions contractor registration on the bond so the city — and the residents you do work for — have a financial backstop if you violate the city's contractor or building rules.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Brazil (the obligee). If a contractor does work that damages city property or breaches the local contractor ordinance, the city can recover against the bond.

We issue the amount the city set; pricing is credit-tier based, starting from $100, and the application collects no credit information. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
