What Surety Bonds Are Needed In Indiana?
There are three broad categories of mandatory Indiana surety bonds:
- License & Permit Bonds are required for certain individuals and businesses applying for or renewing a license to do business in Indiana.
- Contractor Bonds are required by certain Indiana municipalities before a contractor can bid or work on public construction projects in those jurisdictions.
- Court Bonds may be required for those appealing a court decision or serving as executor of an estate or guardian or custodian of another person, and in certain other instances.
