Bond FAQs
What Missouri Clients Ask Most
What’s the difference between a surety bond and insurance?
A bond guarantees you’ll fulfill a legal or financial obligation—it protects the other party, not you.
Do I need a bond to get licensed in Missouri?
Some professions—like contractors, notaries, and auto dealers—must carry license or permit bonds. We can verify your requirements.
How fast can I get a bond?
Many bonds are issued the same day or next business day. Complex bonds may take longer.
Can nonprofits or churches use fidelity bonds?
Yes. If you have staff or volunteers handling funds, a fidelity bond adds an extra layer of accountability.
Do bonds affect my credit?
Some bonds (especially larger or contract bonds) require a soft credit check. We’ll walk you through what’s involved.
