About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the public official bond guarantees

A public official bond guarantees that an officeholder will faithfully perform the duties of the office and account for public money in their care. Wyoming's general surety provisions sit in Title 38, and Title 18, Chapter 3 specifically requires county officers to execute bonds before taking office.

The bond runs to the State of Wyoming or the political subdivision the official serves (the obligee). If an official misuses public funds or fails to perform, the harmed entity can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, the official repays the surety.

There is no single statutory amount. The figure is set by the statute governing the particular office or by the appointing or electing body. Enter the amount on your notice, and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with a soft credit pull that affects approval, never price.

W.S. Title 38, Ch. 2 (and Title 18, Ch. 3 for county officers)Wyoming public official bonds are governed by the general surety provisions of Title 38 and, for county officers, by W.S. 18-3-102, which requires county officers to execute bonds conditioned on faithful performance of the duties of the office before assuming it. The required amount is set by the statute governing the particular office or by the appointing or electing body, not by a single fixed figure — confirm yours on your notice.

How much is the Wyoming public official bond? +
The premium is a flat 3% of the bond amount, with a $275 minimum. The amount itself is set by the statute governing your office or by your appointing body — there is no single figure. Enter the amount you were given and the quote updates.
Who requires this bond? +

What does the bond protect against? +
It guarantees you’ll faithfully perform the duties of the office and account for public money in your care. If you fail to and the public entity is harmed, it can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It informs approval, not price. The rate is a flat 3% either way.
What amount should I choose if I’m not sure? +
Ask the obligee or check the statute governing your office for the exact figure — it varies widely. Send us the requirement and we’ll confirm before you purchase.
