What it is and who needs it.
What the mortuary transport bond actually covers
Maryland's Board of Morticians and Funeral Directors registers mortuary transport services — the businesses that move human remains for funeral establishments — under COMAR 10.29.21, with the Board authorized by the Health Occupations Article.
The registration rules require the applicant to show the service is bondable and carries liability insurance covering each registered transporter it employs. A surety bond is the standard way to satisfy the bondability requirement, standing behind the service’s proper handling of remains and compliance with the Board’s rules.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The exact figure is tied to your registration — the Board’s permit packet has historically referenced a modest bond amount, so confirm the figure with the Board; pricing is 1% of that bond amount, $100 minimum, with a soft credit pull only, never a hard inquiry.
