NV cemetery seller bonds.
$500 flat.
A Nevada seller of prepaid (preneed) cemetery contracts must post a fixed $50,000 bond with the Commissioner of Insurance under NRS 689.495 before a permit issues. Ours is $500 flat — the price you see is the checkout price, identical for every seller. A quick soft credit check may apply, e-signed in 1–2 business days.

What it is and who needs it.
What the cemetery seller bond actually guarantees
Nevada regulates the sale of prepaid (preneed) funeral and cemetery contracts under NRS Chapter 689, administered by the Commissioner of Insurance. Before a permit issues, NRS 689.495 requires the seller to post and maintain a $50,000 bond in favor of the State of Nevada (or an equivalent deposit of cash or securities).
The bond is held for the benefit of buyers of prepaid contracts and others as their interests appear — people who could be damaged by misuse or diversion of money by the seller or its agents, or by the seller failing to perform a prepaid contract. It is a consumer-protection guarantee for money paid years before the service is delivered.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. A soft credit check may run as part of underwriting — it never affects your score, and the price stays $500 either way.
