MD security guard bonds.
Flat 3%. Enter your amount.
Maryland’s State Police no longer require a surety bond to license a security guard agency — since 2020 the requirement is commercial general liability insurance under § 19-504. A security-guard-agency bond today is usually a contractual, client, or legacy requirement, and we issue whatever amount you’re asked for at a flat 3% with no credit check.

What the security-guard-agency bond actually covers
Maryland licenses security guard agencies through the Maryland State Police under the Maryland Security Guards Act (Business Occupations & Professions Title 19). As of 2020 the State Police no longer require a surety bond for the agency license — the requirement is commercial general liability insurance under § 19-504 instead.
So unlike most license bonds, a Maryland security-guard-agency bond is generally not a state mandate today. When an agency is asked for one now, it’s usually a contractual or client requirement — a corporate client, a guarding contract, or a counterparty that conditions work on a surety bond.
Because there’s no current statutory figure, the amount is whatever your contract or client names. The bond protects whoever required it against losses from the agency violating the terms of that engagement — enter that figure and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
