The bond the New York State Thruway Authority requires before it opens a commercial E-ZPass credit account or issues special hauling permits. It guarantees your tolls, monthly tag fees, and permit fees — issued the same day, no credit check on this form.
















This bond is instant-issue — there is no underwriting queue to wait in. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the penal sum the Thruway Authority set for your credit account, and your effective date — that is the entire application.
There is no credit check on this form and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay.
Submit the executed bond with your commercial E-ZPass credit application or permit paperwork to the New York State Thruway Authority. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the Authority insists on them.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. A $5,000 penal sum still works out to the $275 minimum; above that the 3% rate takes over.
The New York State Thruway Authority requires this bond before it extends credit to a commercial carrier — that is, before it opens a commercial E-ZPass charge account or issues special hauling permits for oversize or overweight (divisible and non-divisible) loads. The bond guarantees you will pay your toll-trip invoices, your monthly E-ZPass tag fees, your special hauling permit fees, and any other charges your Thruway use runs up.
The penal sum is set by the Authority, not by us. It is keyed to roughly three months of your anticipated toll charges, and the Authority reviews it monthly — if your volume rises or falls, it may ask you to file a modified bond. Enter whatever figure your credit agreement or permit paperwork states and the quote updates.
Because this is a statutory payment bond on a defined form, it is instant-issue: there is no credit check on this form, no financial statements, and no underwriter queue. You apply, pay the 3%, and file the executed bond with the Thruway Authority the same day.
Submit the application with the penal sum from your Thruway Authority paperwork — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file the same day.
