A Michigan liquefied petroleum gas (propane) dealer who can't otherwise satisfy the Bureau of Fire Services as to financial responsibility files a cash or surety bond payable to the state. The statute sets a range of $500 to $5,000; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for the standard LP-gas dealer bond — enter your amount, pay, and file. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the department required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay.
Submit the executed bond, payable to the state, with your LP-gas dealer license. Wet-ink originals mailed when the office insists.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Because the statutory range tops out at $5,000, most LP-gas dealer bonds land at the $275 minimum.
Michigan regulates liquefied petroleum gas (propane) storage and handling through LARA's Bureau of Fire Services under the Fire Prevention Code and the LP-gas provisions of state law. An LP-gas dealer generally must demonstrate financial responsibility to be licensed.
If a dealer cannot otherwise satisfy the department as to financial responsibility, the dealer files a cash or surety bond payable to the state. By statute the bond is not less than $500 and not more than $5,000 — a small bond compared with most license bonds, which is why nearly every LP-gas dealer bond lands at our $275 minimum premium.
It is a public-protection guarantee standing behind your compliance as a dealer; if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond runs for the term the department requires. Enter the figure you were given and we issue at a flat 3% (or the $275 minimum) with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the department required — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with the Bureau of Fire Services.
