About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the reseller bond actually covers

The Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC) regulates telecommunications companies operating in the state, including companies that resell interstate interexchange (long-distance) service rather than owning their own network. A reseller registers with the UTC before serving Washington customers.

As part of registration, the UTC can require a bond or other financial security as a safeguard — most commonly to protect customer advances, deposits, or prepayments a reseller holds, so customers are not left exposed if the company fails. The bond runs in favor of the Commission for the benefit of customers.

Because the amount depends on the reseller's circumstances, the UTC sets the figure on your registration rather than a single fixed statutory number. We price the amount the UTC named starting from $100, with your exact price set at the application; if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
