About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the PEO bond actually covers

A PEO co-employs a client company's workers — running payroll, withholding and remitting employment taxes, and providing benefits. Texas licenses PEOs through TDLR under Labor Code Chapter 91 and requires each license holder to demonstrate financial responsibility so those obligations get met.

Chapter 91 lets a PEO meet the requirement by maintaining positive working capital, and where there's a shortfall, by posting a surety bond, letter of credit, or guaranty to make up the deficiency. The accepted bond amounts commonly scale with assigned-employee count — roughly $50,000 under 250 employees, $75,000 for 250–750, and $100,000 above 750 — but the exact figure comes from TDLR.

The bond stands behind the PEO's compliance with Chapter 91 and TDLR rules, protecting client companies and assigned employees. If the surety pays a claim, the PEO repays the surety — it is a guarantee, not insurance for the PEO. We issue the amount TDLR sets, priced from a $100 minimum with the application collecting no credit information.

Tex. Labor Code ch. 91 (TDLR)Texas Labor Code Chapter 91 governs Professional Employer Organizations (formerly staff leasing services) and is administered by TDLR. Section 91.014 requires an applicant for an original or renewal license to demonstrate positive working capital, and lets the applicant make up a deficiency through a guaranty, a letter of credit, a bond, or other security acceptable to the department. Required bond amounts commonly track assigned-employee count (about $50,000 / $75,000 / $100,000). Confirm your exact required amount with TDLR.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Texas PEO bond?Pricing is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum. The amount itself comes from TDLR — commonly $50,000, $75,000, or $100,000 by assigned-employee count, or the size of a working-capital deficiency a bond is making up. Enter that figure and your exact price appears at the application.
Do I have to use a bond?No — Labor Code Chapter 91 lets a PEO meet financial responsibility with positive working capital, and accepts a surety bond, letter of credit, or guaranty to cover a shortfall. A bond is usually cheapest: you pay a premium from $100 instead of tying up the full amount in cash or bank collateral.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, so most applications approve instantly.
What does the bond guarantee?That the PEO complies with Chapter 91 and TDLR rules — meeting its payroll, tax, and benefit obligations toward client companies and assigned employees. If the surety pays a valid claim, the PEO repays the surety.
What amount should I enter if I am not sure?Use the figure on your TDLR requirement. If you do not have it yet, the common tiers are $50,000 (under 250 assigned employees), $75,000 (250–750), and $100,000 (over 750) — send us your situation and we will confirm.
