What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
An itinerant vendor event sponsor bond is a local consumer- and county-protection guarantee. When a sponsor brings transient or itinerant vendors into the County of Prince William for an event, the County wants a financial backstop that the sponsor and its vendors will follow the County's vendor rules and meet their obligations.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the County of Prince William (the obligee). If the sponsor or its vendors fail to comply with the permit conditions and someone is harmed, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Sponsors who run a clean event treat the bond as a permit formality. We track it and notify you ahead of expiration so your filing stays 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 $15,000 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
File with your permit application. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the Prince William County itinerant vendor / event sponsor permit application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $15,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
