What is the Iowa bail enforcement agency bond?
Iowa Code Chapter 80A.10 requires individuals file a $5,000 surety bond before being licensed as a bail enforcement business, private security business, or private investigation business. State form PD6 is officially titled “License Surety Bond” and is used for all 3 licenses. This bond requires licensees operate their businesses according to applicable laws and ordinances. If a bonded bail enforcement agency fails to do so, their issuing surety company will pay valid claims up to the full $5,000 bond amount, they must then reimburse.
Who regulates licensing for bail enforcement agencies?
The Iowa Department of Public Safety Administrative Services enforces licensing requirements for bail enforcement agencies in the state, including the $5,000 surety bond requirement. You can contact the department staff by phone at 1(515)725-6230 or email at [email protected].
