A Minnesota agency licensed to provide adoption services must show that a bond is in place to protect its records if it ever closes, under Minn. Stat. 245A.04, subd. 10. This is a records-transfer bond, not a consumer-protection bond — and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.

Your agency details, the bond amount your licensor 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. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond as evidence with your adoption-services license application or renewal. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever required.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure your licensor required and the premium updates.
Minnesota licenses child-placing agencies, including those that provide adoption services, under Minn. Stat. ch. 245A. The bond tied to that license is narrower than most people expect: under Minn. Stat. 245A.04, subd. 10, an applicant to provide adoption services must show that a bond has been obtained and will be continuously maintained throughout the agency’s entire operating period.
Its purpose is specific. The bond covers the cost of transferring and storing the agency’s adoption records with the agency that has agreed to receive them if the applicant voluntarily or involuntarily ceases operation. Adoption records have to be preserved permanently, so the bond guarantees that money exists to move and keep them safe.
This is not a general consumer-protection or fee bond — it is a records-continuity guarantee. The amount is set by your licensor to cover that transfer and storage cost. We issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount your licensor required — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with your license application.
