What it is and who needs it.
What the operator bond actually guarantees
The City of Virginia Beach licenses operators of coin-operated machines — amusement, vending, and similar machines placed for public use within the City — and conditions the operator license on a $1,000 surety bond. It is a guarantee tied to the operator's compliance with the City's licensing and tax rules for those machines.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Virginia Beach (the obligee). The bond stands behind your obligations as a licensed coin machine operator — including any license taxes or fees the City levies on the machines you operate.
It is not insurance for you. If the City has a valid claim and the surety pays it, you repay the surety. Operators who keep their license current and their machine taxes paid treat the bond as a license formality — and we keep your $1,000 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 $1,000 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.
