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 — pricing starts from $100, with a soft credit check that affects approval, never price.

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 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.
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 obligee. Receive the executed bond, ready to file with the entity that required it. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is 0.35% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
One soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
