About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the treasurer bond actually guarantees

An Oklahoma burial association collects members' dues and holds them to pay for burials. Title 8 of the Oklahoma Statutes treats those dues as a trust fund, and conditions the office of treasurer on a surety bond filed with the county court clerk, running in the name of the State of Oklahoma.

The bond is conditioned that the funds of the association are held and applied as a trust fund — that the treasurer doesn't misapply, embezzle, or lose the members' money. If the treasurer breaches that trust, the association and its members can recover against the bond.

The bond amount tracks the trust funds on hand and is never less than $2,000. As the fund grows, the required bond grows with it — so confirm the current balance before you file. We issue whatever amount applies from $100, priced at 1% of the bond amount with a $100 minimum; no credit check up to $25,000.

8 O.S. §230 (and §209)Oklahoma's Cemeteries title (8 O.S. §230, with the treasurer-bond provision at §209) requires the treasurer of a burial association to file a surety bond with the county court clerk, running to the State of Oklahoma and conditioned that the association's funds are held and applied as a trust fund. The bond must at all times equal the trust funds on hand and in no event be less than $2,000. Some long-established associations have statutory exemptions — confirm your association's requirement before filing.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with the county court clerk. Submit the executed bond, running in the name of the State of Oklahoma, to the county court clerk where the association is organized. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $25,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, issued on the spot.

Submit the application with your required bond amount — the executed treasurer bond is generated instantly, ready to file with the county court clerk.

Common questions.

How much is the Oklahoma burial association treasurer bond?Premiums start from $100 and depend on your bond amount. The amount itself equals the association's trust funds on hand and is never less than $2,000. Enter the figure at the application to see your exact price — the premium is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum.
Where do I file it?With the county court clerk in the county where the burial association is organized. The bond runs in the name of the State of Oklahoma for the benefit of the association and its members.
How is the amount set?By statute the bond must equal the trust funds on hand at all times, and never be less than $2,000. Because the balance changes, confirm the current trust-fund total before you file, and re-file if it grows.

What does the bond protect against?It protects the association and its members against a treasurer who misapplies or loses the trust funds. If the surety pays a claim, the treasurer repays the surety — it is not insurance for the treasurer.
