About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the health spa bond actually covers

Texas regulates health spas under Occupations Code Chapter 702. The Secretary of State may not issue a health spa operator's certificate of registration unless the applicant files a surety bond (or other approved security) sufficient to protect the spa's members — §702.151.

The bond is payable to the state for the benefit of members: a member who suffers actual financial loss when a spa closes can bring an action on the bond and recover the unused or unearned portion of their dues. The amount is tiered by the total prepaid memberships at the location, with a statutory floor of $20,000 and a ceiling of $50,000.

The bond is filed on Secretary of State form 3002. Whatever amount your prepaid-membership volume requires, premiums cost 1% of your bond amount — it is not insurance for you; if the surety pays a member, you repay the surety.
