Most Popular Bonds in New Jersey
- Freight Broker Bond: This $75,000 bond is required for all freight brokers licensed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). It is a federal requirement; therefore, it is the same for all states.
- Auto Dealer Bond: The New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (NJMVC) requires all licensed auto dealers to have this $10,000 bond.
- Contractor License Bond: Required for contractors to get licensed to work in some NJ cities or do certain types of work (ex. home improvement over $500). This bond amount varies as there is no state-wide contractor licensing requirement.

How Much Does a New Jersey Surety Bond Cost?
A New Jersey Surety Bond costs as little as $100. You generally only pay 1% - 10% of the total bond amount needed to get bonded. For example, a $10,000 bond would cost anywhere from $100 – $1,000.
The percentage you pay to get bonded is known as a bond premium or bond rate. For most surety bonds, your credit score heavily determines your bond rate. However, other factors that can influence your rate include:
- Your bonding history
- Experience in your industry
- Business financials

Another factor that can impact how much you pay to get bonded is the surety company you choose. Often, larger and more established sureties offer the best rates.
At JW Surety Bonds, we are able to offer the best rates in the industry due to the large volume of bonds we underwrite. Just last month, we had a New Jersey auto dealer switch his bond over to us due to our rates. We were able to offer him an Auto Dealer Bond for $60 cheaper than his previous bonding company.
