#  What Is a License And Permit Bond?

License and Permit [bonds](https://www.sterlinginsnow.com/bonds/) are a type of 
surety bond that is required by a lot of industries and businesses.  These are required
at the Federal, state and local government levels and they are required before business
owners in their own respective industries can be issued a license or permit for 
certain types of work.

## How Much Does A License And Permit Bond Cost?

Most bonds can be issued instantly and without being processed through an underwriter.
The cost is minimal and typically 1% of the total bond amount.  That means that 
if you have a bond for $50,000, you would have a bond premium of only $500.  

If an underwriter is required, it will typically be due to the financial history
of the applicant.  That means that if the person purchasing the bond has good credit,
the bond will be approved faster and at lower premium than those with challenges
on their credit score.
