If you run a business in Georgia, you may need a surety bond at some point. Different jobs need different bonds. Here is a quick overview of the common ones Georgia businesses run into.

License and permit bonds

Many Georgia licenses require a bond. Contractors, auto dealers, and various trades often need one before the state or city issues a license. The bond protects your customers and the state if you break the rules.

Notary bonds

Georgia notaries need a notary bond before they can start. It is small and cheap, often issued the same day. The bond protects the public if a notary makes a mistake.

Lost title bonds

If you cannot get a clean title for a vehicle, Georgia lets you use a lost title bond to get a bonded title. The amount is based on the vehicle value, and many drivers get bonded the same day.

Court and probate bonds

Georgia courts often require bonds for people handling estates, guardianships, or appeals. The court sets the amount, and timing is usually tight, so these bonds need to move fast.

Commercial and tax bonds

Some Georgia businesses need bonds tied to taxes, fuel, alcohol, or utilities. These promise you will pay what you owe or follow the rules of your license.
