Wicomico County requires a $5,000 surety bond as a condition of its master electrician license. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section.
License bonds like this issue right after purchase for most applicants. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Wicomico County master electrician license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Wicomico County licenses master electricians and conditions the license on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a compliance guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to follow the County's electrical code and the related ordinances and Maryland law.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Wicomico County (the obligee). If a master electrician violates the County code and the County or a harmed party suffers, they can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Electricians who follow the County code treat the bond as a license formality.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information, because this bond doesn't need it.
