This page is general information, not legal advice. Bond amounts are set by Oklahoma City, and every application is reviewed before a bond is issued. See our disclaimer.

Which trade needs which bond

Oklahoma City bonds several contractor trades and a few regulated businesses. Sidewalk and driveway contractors, sign contractors and boiler contractors each file the bond for their work. Pawnbrokers, secondhand and used-goods dealers, and employment agencies file an occupation bond with their city license.

What the bond does

These bonds run to the City of Oklahoma City and protect the public. If a licensed contractor or business breaks city ordinances and someone suffers a loss, a claim can be paid against the bond. The licensee repays the surety for any claim it covers.

How to apply

Choose your trade above, enter your business and contact details, and you go straight to the secure application. Oklahoma City sets the required amount, confirmed after review, so check the current figure with the city before you file.
