Why do I need this bond?
By posting this surety bond, promoters agree to follow Iowa Code Chapter 90A regarding the regulation of boxing, wrestling, and mixed martial arts events. The bond form specifically requires the promoter to appropriately pay all taxes, as well as any other costs or fees. MMA bonds also ensure promoters manage funds appropriately on behalf of clubs conducting a contest, including payments to contestants and to all other professional personnel.
What’s the fine print?
This bond must remain active for the duration of a promoter’s license. The principal’s mailing address must be listed on the bond form.
Iowa boxing/wrestling/MMA surety bonds are continuous unless otherwise canceled. If the bond is to be canceled, the surety must provide the obligee with at least 30 days' written notice.
