About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the peddler bond actually covers

The City of Meridian licenses peddlers, and conditions the license on a surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee — it stands behind your honest dealing with the residents you sell to within the city.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Meridian (the obligee), with the residents you sell to as the protected parties. If you take money and fail to deliver, or violate the city's peddler rules, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.

Because the city sets the amount on the license, there is no single statutory figure — enter whatever the City of Meridian named, and we issue the bond starting from $100, with the application collecting no credit check up to $25,000.

City of Meridian — City Secretary / PermitsThe City of Meridian requires this bond as a condition of its peddler license; the bond amount and terms are set by the City Secretary's office under the city's peddler and solicitation ordinance. Confirm the required amount on your Meridian license 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 Meridian. Submit the executed bond with your peddler license application at the City of Meridian. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.

What sets the price

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 $25,000. 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 Meridian set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
