The Town of Smithtown, New York requires door-to-door solicitors and peddlers to post a bond before the Town issues a solicitation permit. Smithtown sets the amount; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check, $275 minimum.
















No underwriting queue for a standard solicitor bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the Town Clerk. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount Smithtown required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay.
Submit the executed bond with your solicitor permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the Town insists on them.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure Smithtown required and the premium updates.
A solicitor / peddler bond is a consumer-protection guarantee to the Town. Smithtown wants assurance that anyone selling door-to-door inside the Town will follow its solicitation ordinance and deal honestly with residents.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Smithtown (the obligee), with residents as the protected parties. If a solicitor takes deposits and fails to deliver, or violates the Town ordinance, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your solicitation permit. Let it lapse and the Town can revoke your permit — so we track it and notify you ahead of expiration.
Submit the application with the bond amount Smithtown required — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
