About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the license & permit bond actually covers

The City of Lockhart conditions certain licenses and permits on a license & permit surety bond. The bond is a guarantee that you will comply with the city ordinance the license or permit is issued under — and make good on losses if you do not.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lockhart (the obligee), with the city and any harmed member of the public as the protected parties. If you violate the terms of your city license or permit, a claim can be made against the bond.

Because this is a general license & permit bond, the amount depends on which Lockhart license or permit you hold — enter whatever the city named, and we issue it starting from $100, with the application collecting no credit check up to $100,000.

City of Lockhart — City Secretary / PermitsThe City of Lockhart requires this bond as a condition of the underlying city license or permit; the bond amount and terms are set by the City Secretary / permits office under the specific ordinance that governs your license or permit. Confirm the required amount on your Lockhart license or permit 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 City of Lockhart. Submit the executed bond with your license or permit application at the City of Lockhart. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. 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 the bond amount the City of Lockhart set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
