Texas conditions a health spa certificate of registration on a surety bond filed with the Secretary of State under Occupations Code §702.151. The amount runs from $20,000 to $50,000 based on your prepaid-membership volume. Premiums are 1% of your bond amount.
















No underwriting queue for a standard health spa bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the Secretary of State. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount your membership volume requires, and the effective date — that is the application.
No credit check up to $50,000.
Submit the executed bond with your health spa registration. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the office insists.
Texas regulates health spas under Occupations Code Chapter 702. The Secretary of State may not issue a health spa operator's certificate of registration unless the applicant files a surety bond (or other approved security) sufficient to protect the spa's members — §702.151.
The bond is payable to the state for the benefit of members: a member who suffers actual financial loss when a spa closes can bring an action on the bond and recover the unused or unearned portion of their dues. The amount is tiered by the total prepaid memberships at the location, with a statutory floor of $20,000 and a ceiling of $50,000.
The bond is filed on Secretary of State form 3002. Whatever amount your prepaid-membership volume requires, premiums cost 1% of your bond amount — it is not insurance for you; if the surety pays a member, you repay the surety.
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.
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.
File with the Secretary of State. Submit the executed bond with your health spa registration. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the office insists.
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 $50,000. 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.
Submit the application with your required bond amount — the executed health spa bond on form 3002 is generated instantly, ready to file.
