New Hampshire Auctioneer Surety Bonds

Who needs an Auctioneer Surety Bond?

Most states require an Auctioneer Surety Bond for any individual or organization that wishes to obtain an auctioneers license or operate an auction house. This bond is usually required during the licensing process and is generally requested by the local licensing board, the Secretary of State or other similar agencies.

What is the purpose of an Auctioneer Surety Bond?

These license and permit surety bonds ensure an auctioneer’s compliance with all local and state regulation while performing their duties. They also hold auctioneers accountable for all products and assets owed to their customers, as well as the proper cataloguing of all transactions and payments received. Auctioneer Surety Bonds protect customers against potential unfair practices such as the illegal substitution of purchased goods and the misrepresentation of items for auction.

If a harmed party files a claim against the bond and it is found to be valid, the surety company will pay out up to the penal sum of the bond to resolve the claim. Any monies paid out by the surety, including attorney’s fees, must be reimbursed by the principal.
