How Does a Maryland Unemployment Insurance Bond Work? 

An unemployment insurance bond creates a legal contract between these three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the employer filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Department of Labor and Licensing requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding all applicable provisions of the Maryland Unemployment Insurance Law

If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you must ultimately refund the surety. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

These bonds expire every two years. To renew your unemployment insurance bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 


After renewing, you’ll receive a continuation certificate to file as proof of ongoing coverage.
