Pierce County peddler bonds, $2,000.
$100 flat.
Pierce County requires a $2,000 bond from a peddler or solicitor licensee with more than ten employees (Pierce County Code 5.10.070); a licensee with ten or fewer files the $1,000 bond instead. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit check.

What it is and who needs it.
What the peddler / solicitor bond covers
Pierce County licenses peddlers and solicitors — people who sell door-to-door or as itinerant vendors — and conditions the license on a $2,000 surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee that you will deal honestly with the public and follow the County's peddler / solicitor rules.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Pierce County (the obligee), with the buying public as the protected party. If a peddler takes money and fails to deliver, or otherwise violates the rules, a harmed customer can recover against the $2,000 bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Peddlers who deal honestly treat the bond as a license formality. We issue the $2,000 amount at $100 flat, with no credit check.

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
