A Georgia resident fur dealer posts a $5,000 forfeiture bond in favor of the state under O.C.G.A. 27-3-70, conditioned on following the fur-dealer laws and Department of Natural Resources rules. Our carrier's rate book prices this bond at a flat $100 — the application collects no credit information.
















Fur-dealer bonds are about as simple as surety gets. Here's the entire process:
Your details and an effective date. No financials and no credit section in the application.
Small fixed-amount license bonds like this are among the thousands that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your fur dealer license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Georgia licenses resident fur dealers through the Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division. Under O.C.G.A. 27-3-70, an applicant must post a $5,000 forfeiture bond in favor of the State of Georgia (or a cash bond in the same amount), conditioned on faithful compliance with the state's fur-dealer laws and the board's regulations.
The bond is a compliance guarantee: if a dealer violates the fur laws or DNR regulations, the Commissioner can recover on the bond for the breach. The statute provides that on a full forfeiture the dealer's license is suspended until a new bond is filed for the rest of the license period.
It is not insurance for you — if the bond is forfeited, you repay the surety. The bond runs one year, matching the license period. We issue it at a flat $100, with the application collecting no credit information.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond doesn't have one.
