About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the dance studio bond actually covers

Nevada treats prepaid dance studio and health club contracts as a consumer-protection concern under its deceptive trade practices law. Before advertising services or conducting business, the owner must register and deposit security with the Division of Consumer Affairs under NRS 598.946.

The security amount tiers with membership: $10,000 for fewer than 400 members, rising through $15,000, $20,000, $25,000, $35,000, $50,000, and up to $250,000 for the largest clubs. A facility that presells lessons or services must post at least $100,000 unless a higher tier applies. Owners report membership quarterly and adjust the security accordingly.

The security is conditioned on the owner’s compliance with the dance studio / health club provisions and the terms of each buyer’s contract — so if the studio closes or breaches and a buyer is harmed, the buyer is protected. A surety bond is one accepted form (a letter of credit or certificate of deposit also qualify). We issue the bond with pricing from $100; no credit check up to $50,000, and any check that runs on a larger amount is a.

NRS 598.946 (Nevada Division of Consumer Affairs)NRS 598.946 requires the owner of a dance studio or health club to register and deposit security with the Division before advertising services or conducting business. The amount tiers with membership — $10,000 (under 400) up to $250,000 (25,000+) — and at least $100,000 if the facility presells lessons or services. The security is conditioned on compliance with NRS 598.940 to 598.966 and the terms of each buyer’s contract; membership is reported quarterly and the security adjusted. A surety bond, letter of credit, or certificate of deposit may satisfy it.

After you buy

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

Issued on the spot. Most applicants are approved and issued as soon as they pay. No credit check up to $50,000. Above $50,000, a soft pull may add a short review.

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.

One application, priced from $100.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Nevada dance studio bond?Pricing is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum. The amount tiers with membership under NRS 598.946 — $10,000 for fewer than 400 members, up to $250,000 for the largest clubs — and at least $100,000 if you presell lessons. Enter your tier and your exact price appears at the application.
Why does Nevada require this?It protects buyers who prepay for lessons or memberships. The security is conditioned on the owner’s compliance with the dance studio / health club law and the terms of each contract, so a member is protected if the studio closes or breaches.
Is there a credit check?No credit check up to $50,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score. Most applications approve instantly.
What if I presell lessons before opening?If the facility presells lessons or services, the minimum security jumps to $100,000 unless a higher membership tier applies. Enter that amount and we’ll issue it.
Can I use a letter of credit instead?Yes — NRS 598.946 also accepts a letter of credit or a certificate of deposit. A surety bond is usually the cheapest, since you pay a bond premium starting from $100 rather than tying up the full amount in cash or bank collateral.
Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
