How Does a Hunting License Agent Bond Work?
This type of surety bond creates a legal contract between three parties.
| Bond Party | Description |
|---|---|
| 1) Principal | The bonded hunting and fishing agent |
| 2) Obligee | The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department |
| 3) Surety | The issuing surety provider |
These bonds ensure that hunting and fishing agents follow all ordinances, rules, and regulations and prevent financial loss if they fail to do so.
If the state or another harmed party files a bond claim, the surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount. You are then responsible for repaying the surety.
