About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the door-to-door vendor bond actually guarantees

Montgomery County licenses door-to-door vendors — solicitors and peddlers who sell goods or services house to house. The County conditions that license on a fixed $1,250 surety bond as a consumer-protection guarantee.

The bond stands behind your honest dealing with County residents: it protects buyers against misrepresentation, fraud, or failure to deliver in a door-to-door sale, and backs your compliance with the County's solicitation rules. Montgomery County and harmed residents are the protected parties.

It is not insurance for you. If a resident is harmed and recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. Vendors who deal honestly treat the $1,250 bond as a license formality, not a risk.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $1,250 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with your license. Your executed $1,250 bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Montgomery County door-to-door vendor license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $1,250 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
