Rockland County requires dealers in second-hand gems and precious stones to file a $2,000 bond as a condition of a county dealer license. At 3%, that is below our minimum, so the price is just $275 flat. The application is five minutes.
















County license bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check 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 and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the Rockland County office that issues your dealer license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$2,000 bond × 3% = $60, which rounds up to our $275 minimum, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
Rockland County licenses dealers in second-hand gems and precious stones — a category covering used jewelry, diamonds, and other resale gemstones. The county can condition that license on a $2,000 surety bond standing behind the dealer’s honest dealing and recordkeeping under the county’s rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal / dealer), the surety carrier, and Rockland County together with the public (the protected parties). If a dealer buys stolen stones, fails to keep required purchase records, or otherwise violates the county’s licensing rules and someone is harmed, a claim can be made against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Dealers who keep proper records and deal honestly treat the bond as a license formality. The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the county license.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
