What it is and who needs it.
What the event bond actually covers
Michigan regulates professional boxing and mixed martial arts through the Unarmed Combat Commission under the Michigan Unarmed Combat Regulatory Act (PA 403 of 2004). Before the department approves a contest or exhibition, the promoter must file an event bond.
The bond is fixed by the department at not less than $20,000 and not more than $50,000, executed by the promoter as principal, payable to the State of Michigan, and conditioned on faithful performance of the act. It can be used to satisfy payment to the professionals on the card, the department's costs for ring officials and physicians, and drug testing.
The statute requires the bond to be purchased at least 5 days before the contest. Enter the amount the Commission set for your event and apply — no credit check up to $50,000, and pricing starts from $200 — same honest pricing as every bond we write.

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 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.
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 the Commission. The statute says the bond must be purchased at least 5 days before the contest. Submit the executed bond, payable to the State of Michigan, to get your event approved. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $50,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
