New Mexico requires a professional fundraiser to file a $25,000 surety bond with the Attorney General at registration, under the Charitable Solicitations Act (§57-22-6.2). Ours is $375 — the price you see is the checkout price — and the application collects no credit information at all.
















Charity license bonds are simple. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your professional fundraiser registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Under New Mexico's Charitable Solicitations Act, a professional fundraiser — someone who, for compensation, solicits contributions for a charitable organization — must register with the Attorney General before contracting with any charity (other than a religious organization), and file a surety bond at registration.
The bond is set at $25,000 under §57-22-6.2, payable to the state, and the fundraiser must maintain it (or alternative financial assurance approved by the Attorney General) for as long as it solicits in New Mexico. It is a charity-and-donor-protection guarantee: it stands behind your honest handling of solicited funds.
It is not insurance for you — if a fundraiser misuses charitable contributions and the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We track the bond and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your registration never lapses over a missed email.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information, because this bond doesn't require it.
