What it is and who needs it.
What the concessionaire bond actually covers
A concessionaire is a private business that operates on public property under contract — a vendor in a state park, a café in a government facility, or a company managing an amenity on public land. The agency that grants the concession commonly requires a performance bond guaranteeing the concession agreement.
The bond guarantees that you follow the terms of your contract — paying the fees or rent you owe, maintaining the premises, and meeting the service and safety standards the agency set. If you default and the public agency is harmed, it can recover against the bond.
Because the requirement comes from the contract rather than a single statute, the amount is whatever your agency names. For example, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department may require a bond of a state-park concessionaire under its administrative rules; other agencies set their own figures. Enter the amount you were asked for; premiums start from $100, with your exact price set at application and a soft credit check that never affects your score.

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
Deliver to the contracting agency. Submit the executed bond to the agency or authority that required it before you begin operating. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever they insist.
What sets the price
The premium is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
One soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
