About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A public adjuster bond is a policyholder-protection guarantee. You negotiate insurance claims on behalf of people who've just had the worst week of their year — the state wants a financial backstop that you'll handle their claims and their money honestly.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of New York (the obligee), with your clients as the protected parties. If an adjuster mishandles client funds or violates adjuster law, the harmed client can recover against the bond.

The bond renews on New York's statutory date — all NY public adjuster bonds share the same renewal cycle regardless of when you buy. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, so your license never lapses over paperwork.

FAQ

Common questions.

Why is the price $100 on a $1,000 bond?The premium for this bond is set by our carrier's rate book for the $1,000 fixed amount — $100, flat. It's the price you see at checkout, no formula to reverse-engineer.
Do I pay the $1,000?No. You pay $100. The $1,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond?License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many adjusters finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information at all — there's no credit section on this bond. Most applications approve instantly; small fixed-amount license bonds like this rarely need anything further.
When does it renew?On New York's statutory renewal date — every NY public adjuster bond shares the same cycle, regardless of purchase date. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available so your license never lapses over a missed email.
I'm licensed in another state. Do I need a separate NY bond?Yes — the bond is state-specific. Your home-state bond doesn't transfer; New York requires its own $1,000 filing as part of the NY license. Same short application, and the bond issues the moment you pay.
