How Does a North Dakota Debt Settlement Service Provider Bond Work? 

As with all surety bonds, a debt settlement service bond creates a legal contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the debt settlement company owner(s) filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The North Dakota DFI, Consumer Division requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding the provisions of North Dakota Century Code Chapter 13-11

If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

These bonds expire annually. To renew your debt settlement service bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
