AK paid solicitor bonds.
$150 flat.

Alaska requires every paid solicitor to file a fixed $10,000 bond with the Department of Law before soliciting charitable contributions for compensation — ours is $150 flat, and the price you see is the checkout price. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A paid solicitor is anyone who, for compensation, solicits charitable contributions on behalf of a charity. Alaska wants a donor-and-public-protection guarantee that you'll follow the charitable solicitation rules and account honestly for what you raise.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Alaska (the obligee), with donors and the public protected. If a paid solicitor fails to comply with the registration regulations and someone is financially harmed, that person can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay in place for the entire period you solicit in Alaska. This bond filing is done on the Department's form and typically wants a wet-ink original — we mail it to you and track the renewal so your filing stays continuous.

AS 45.68 · 9 AAC 12.060Alaska Statutes 45.68 (Charitable Solicitations) and regulation 9 AAC 12.060 require a paid solicitor to file a $10,000 surety bond with the Department of Law and maintain it for the duration of solicitation activity in the state, on the Department's "Paid Solicitor Surety Bond" form. Failure to register before soliciting for compensation is a class A misdemeanor. Confirm the current form and amount with the Department of Law.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Alaska paid solicitor bond?The premium is $150 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this specific bond, the same for every solicitor. The $10,000 bond amount is set by regulation, so there is no quote process; the price you see is the checkout price.

Do I pay the $10,000?No. You pay $150. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

Where do I file it?With the Alaska Department of Law, Consumer Protection Unit, on its Paid Solicitor Surety Bond form, before you solicit for compensation. Because the Department wants a wet-ink original, we mail the executed bond to you (or directly to the Department).

Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, so most applications approve instantly. On the rare bond where a check does run, it's a soft pull only — it never affects your credit score.

When does it renew?The bond must stay active for as long as you conduct solicitation activity in Alaska. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your registration never lapses over a missed email.
