About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A bail agent transacts bail on behalf of a surety insurer, and Nevada conditions that license on a bond filed with the Division of Insurance. NRS 697.190 requires the bond to comply with NRS 679B.175 and to run in an amount the Commissioner determines — currently $25,000 for a bail agent.

The bond is conditioned on full accounting and payment to anyone entitled to it of money, property, or other matters that come into the agent's possession through bail bond transactions under the license. If an agent mishandles premiums, collateral, or client funds, a harmed party can bring a claim against the bond.

It is not insurance for the agent — if the surety pays a claim, the agent repays the surety. The bond must stay in force for as long as the license is active, so we track the term and send renewal notices ahead of expiration.

NRS 697.190Nevada Revised Statutes 697.190 requires every bail agent applicant to file, and maintain in force while licensed, a bond complying with NRS 679B.175 in an amount the Commissioner of Insurance determines — set at $25,000 for a standard bail agent license. Confirm your required amount with the Division of Insurance before filing.
