What Is a Surety Bond?
A surety bond is a three-party agreement that guarantees one party will fulfill its obligations to another. If the bonded party fails to meet those obligations, the bond provides financial compensation to the harmed party. In Texas, surety bonds are required for thousands of professions, contracts, and business activities.
At TAP Insurance Texas, we make getting bonded simple. Whether you need a contractor bond, notary bond, auto dealer bond, or any of the 7,000+ bond types available, we can help you get approved quickly and affordably.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a surety bond cost?
Surety bond premiums typically range from 1% to 15% of the bond amount, depending on the bond type, your credit score, and financial history. A $10,000 notary bond might cost as little as $100 per year.
How long does it take to get a surety bond?
Many standard bonds (notary, auto dealer, license bonds) can be issued the same day. Larger contract bonds may take 1-3 business days for underwriting review.
What if I have bad credit?
We work with surety companies that specialize in applicants with all credit levels. While rates may be higher, we can often find approval where others cannot.
Do I need a surety bond in Texas?
If you are a notary, auto dealer, contractor working on public projects, freight broker, or hold certain business licenses, Texas law likely requires you to be bonded. Contact us and we will help you determine your requirements.
What is the difference between a surety bond and insurance?
Insurance protects the policyholder. A surety bond protects the party requiring the bond (the obligee). If a claim is paid on your bond, you are responsible for repaying the surety company.
