About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Oklahoma City licenses auctioneers through the City Clerk's office and conditions that license on a $1,000 surety bond. It's a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your honest handling of goods and proceeds when you conduct auctions inside the city.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Oklahoma City (the obligee), with auction customers as the protected parties. If an auctioneer mishandles a seller's goods or a buyer's money in violation of the city's license terms, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We keep the $1,000 filing continuous and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your city license never lapses over a missed email.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Oklahoma City auctioneer bond? +
The premium is $275 — our flat minimum. Three percent of the $1,000 bond amount is only $30, so the price falls to the $275 floor, the same for every auctioneer.
Do I pay the $1,000? +
No. You pay $275. 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? +
Small fixed city bonds like this are among the thousands that issue right after purchase — many auctioneers finish the application and have the bond the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check? +
No — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount city license bonds like this one don't need one.
Where do I file it? +
With the City of Oklahoma City — typically the City Clerk — alongside your auctioneer license application or renewal. We deliver the executed bond ready to file.
