How Does an Alabama Cosmetology and Barbering School Bond Work?
As with all surety bonds, a cosmetology and barbering school bond creates a legal contract between three parties:
- Principal: You, the cosmetology and barbering school owner(s) filing the bond
- Obligee: The Alabama Board of Cosmetology and Barbering requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding all license regulations and student contracts.
If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety.
How Do I Renew My Bond?
These bonds expire annually. To renew your cosmetology and barbering school bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted.
We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
