What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A solicitor bond is a consumer-protection guarantee. Door-to-door sellers take orders and payment at the doorstep — the City of Falls Church wants a financial backstop that you will deal honestly, deliver what you sell, and follow the City solicitor ordinance.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Falls Church (the obligee), with residents as the protected parties. If you take payment and fail to deliver, or otherwise violate the solicitor ordinance, a harmed resident can recover against the $2,000 bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your permit. Let it lapse and the City can pull your solicitor permit — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your filing continuous.

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 $2,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
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
