What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Mississippi registers appraisal management companies — firms that hire and oversee independent appraisers for lenders — through the Real Estate Appraiser Licensing and Certification Board under the Mississippi Appraisal Management Company Registration Act. Registration requires a $20,000 surety bond.
The bond is payable to the State of Mississippi for the use, benefit, and indemnity of any person who suffers damage or loss as a result of the AMC’s breach of contract, breach of an obligation arising from contract, or violation of law. A harmed appraiser, lender, or consumer can recover against the bond up to $20,000.
The surety can cancel only with at least 60 days’ written notice to the Board’s administrator, keeping coverage continuous. If the surety pays a claim, the AMC repays the surety. (Note: the Registration Act is currently set to stand repealed July 1, 2027 unless the Legislature reauthorizes it.)

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 $20,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
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 Real Estate Appraiser Board. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your AMC registration application or renewal. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $200 at the $20,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
