Collection Agent Bond
These bonds fall within the category of both good faith as well as credit and financial guarantees. Collection agents handle money on behalf of others, and the bonds usually guarantee faithful accounting for it. However, in many jurisdictions the bonds also protect the public from undue harassment and threats.
Completion Bond
A simplified definition of a completion bond is that the surety guarantees that no matter what happens to the bond principal the project will be completed by the surety even if the owner runs out of money.
Contractor’s License Bond
In some municipalities, contractors must post a bond to keep their licenses in force. The bond is for the benefit of the public to compensate them for actual damage if the contractor does not adhere to the Contractor’s License Laws.
Counter Replevin Bond
These bonds may be employed by defendants to retain or regain possession of property that has been replevied. They guarantee that the property will be surrendered, to satisfy the final judgment of the court, in the same condition as when recovered. There is a real exposure under these bonds for safekeeping. The property, in essence, becomes the property of the defendant to deal with in any way it sees fit. Both the defendant and the surety would be liable for any deterioration or outright destruction of the property during the time of the court action.
Defendant Bond
Generally filed as a counter bond to release property seized by plaintiffs; or in some cases, to postpone enforcement of a court order pending further judicial proceedings such as appeals. The former includes release or discharge attachment or garnishment and counter replevin bonds, and the latter includes appeal, supersedeas and stay of execution bonds. In either case, defendant bonds guarantee the payment of any final judgment entered by the trial or appellate court in favor of the plaintiff and against the defendant.
Disbursing Agent Bond
A Bond posted by the disbursing agent appointed solely to marshal the assets, liquidate and distribute to creditors guaranteeing faithful execution.
Dual Obligee Bond

Escrow Agent Bond
These bonds are often associated with the sale of real property or timeshares. They generally provide protection to the general public for damages resulting from fraud or misrepresentation, and guarantee refund of any money held for safekeeping by the escrow agent should the depositor be entitled to same. Escrow agent bonds are good faith and credit guarantees and the principal must be reputable, experienced and financially responsible.
Game of Chance Bond
Currently, two states; (Florida and New York) have laws requiring operators of game promotions offered in connection with the sale of consumer products or services to either establish a trust account or post a surety bond guaranteeing that the prizes will, in fact, be awarded to the winners. In Florida there is an element of adverse selection because the security provisions can be waived for operators who have run successful promotions for five years without any civil, administrative or criminal actions. In as much as the bonds guarantee that the promoter will abide by its promises and award the prizes being offered in the promotion, the bonds must be treated as financial guarantees.
Garnishment Bond
This type of bond is used by plaintiffs to obtain security for an alleged claim for debt by attaching property or credits of defendants that are in the hands of a third party. Third party garnishees, when properly notified, are obligated to hold the property pending the outcome of the suit. This action is frequently used to attach either bank accounts or accounts payable by a business concern.
Indemnity Bond
This guarantees that the principal will pay any damages or losses suffered by the governing body or public while engaging in a potentially hazardous activity that requires a specific license or permit. Differs from compliance type bonds in that the particular activity requires a special permit or license. Examples include various street obstruction and house moving bonds. These bonds can be written for well-established and reputable applicants who have adequate public liability and property damage insurance.
Indemnity to Sheriff Bond
This type of bond may be required of law officers who are called upon to execute writs. Generally, the officers will rely on the plaintiff’s attorney as to what property is subject to seizure. The officers are liable for damages for seizing the wrong property or acting on invalid writs. The bond is for the protection of officers of the court from such damages. If there is a fully adjudged claim that has been reduced to a judgment, the potential liability under such a bond is quite limited. However, if the claim is questionable or the property not clearly identified as to ownership, substantial damages can occur. Sometimes adjoining or other property not belonging to the plaintiff is damaged when the plaintiff’s property is removed. For example, damages may occur on the premises where the plaintiff’s property is located.
Internal Revenue Bond

Payment/Labor & Material Bond
The payment bond/ labor and material bond guarantees that the contractor will pay all workers, sub-contractors, suppliers and other vendors that have supplied labor, materials or equipment to the bonded project. This bond is usually written with the performance bond at no additional charge. On occasion the payment bond is written on its own.
Plaintiff Bond
These bonds are generally given in connection with the prejudgment seizure of property belonging to or in the hands of the defendant. Since this action involves the prejudgment seizure of property, the plaintiff must adhere to the letter of the law so the defendant is not deprived of property without due process of law. The bonds guarantee return of the seized property and/or payment of any damages sustained by the defendant if the court ultimately determines the seizure was wrongful and decides in favor of the defendant. Examples include attachment, garnishment, replevin and claim and delivery bonds.
Testamentary Trustee Bond
Wholesale Distributors, Fuel Tax Bond

It allows the wholesaler to defer payment of tax on the acquisition of gasoline, aviation and/or diesel fuel to the supplier of said fuels until the date the supplier must remit taxes to the state taxing authority. This bond is more in the nature of a financial guarantee because the wholesaler is liable from its own assets for the payment of the taxes.

The libelant may institute a proceeding that is basically the same as an attachment proceeding and have the U.S. Marshall seize the vessel as security for the claim. When a vessel is seized, it is said to have been “libeled” by the libelant who may be required to post a bond with essentially the same guarantees as a standard attachment bond.

In all states, except where beer or liquor is sold by state stores, dealers are licensed. Bonds may be required to simply guarantee compliance with the law and can be written for reputable dealers. In other jurisdictions, the bonds may also guarantee the payment of taxes on beverages sold which makes the bond a good faith and credit guarantee.

When a judgment or decree has been rendered in one court and the losing party wishes to take an appeal to a higher court, he or she ordinarily must give an appeal bond.
