Why do I need this bond?
By posting a California registration service bond, principals (registration service agents) pledge to not cause any loss to the public or the state as a result of the principal’s unethical or unlawful business practices. Prohibited actions under this bond include:
- Knowingly or negligently accepting false statements submitted to the registration service
- Permitting or committing fraudulent practices
- Using a false or fictitious name
- Operating with a suspended license
If the principal violates the terms of the surety contract, the bond protects harmed parties from financial loss up to the full amount of the bond. The principal must reimburse the surety for any damages paid out.
