\n Surety Bond <\/h3>\n \t\t \t

A surety bond is generally a three-party agreement involving the principal purchasing the bond, the obligee requiring it and the surety guaranteeing the obligation.\n\nThe bond primarily protects the organization or party requiring it if the principal fails to meet a covered legal or contractual obligation.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n Traditional Insurance <\/h3>\n \t\t \t

Traditional insurance generally protects the policyholder against covered losses described in the policy.\n\nA surety bond serves a different purpose by guaranteeing an obligation to the party that requires the bond.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t

A surety bond is a three-party agreement between the principal (the party purchasing the bond), the obligee (the party requiring the bond) and the surety (the company guaranteeing the obligation). It ensures that the principal fulfills a legal or contractual obligation to the obligee.<\/div> <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n

No. Surety bonds and insurance serve different purposes. Traditional insurance protects the policyholder against covered losses. A surety bond primarily protects the obligee (the party requiring the bond) if the principal fails to fulfill a covered obligation. The principal is also expected to reimburse the surety for any claims paid.<\/div> <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n

The bonded title process in Texas generally begins with an application to the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles. After review, the applicant receives a determination letter stating the required bond amount.
