How Does an Arkansas Surplus Lines Broker/Producer Bond Work? 

As with all surety bonds, a surplus lines broker bond creates a legal contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the surplus lines broker or producer filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Arkansas Insurance Department, Licensing Division requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding the bond terms and all applicable provisions of the Arkansas Insurance Code.

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 surplus lines broker bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
