OK public official bonds.
Flat 3%. Enter your amount.
Oklahoma conditions many elected and appointed offices on a faithful-performance (official) bond filed before the officer qualifies and takes the oath. The penal sum is set by the position — statute, a county or municipal resolution, or the appointing authority. Whatever amount you were given, we issue it at a flat 3%, $275 minimum.

What it is and who needs it.
What the official bond actually guarantees
An Oklahoma public official bond is a faithful-performance guarantee. It backs the honest, faithful discharge of the duties of the office and the proper accounting of any public funds the officer handles — paid for the benefit of the State, the county or municipality, and the people the office serves.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the public body together with anyone harmed (the obligee and protected parties). If an officer defaults — misapplies funds or fails to perform a duty of the office — a harmed party can recover against the bond up to the penal sum.
The penal sum is set by the office, not by us. Some county offices carry a fixed statutory amount; others are set by county or municipal resolution; many counties cover officers under a blanket bond under 19 O.S. § 167 instead. Confirm your required amount and obligee from your appointing authority and enter it — we issue the bond at a flat 3%.
