Surety Bond Cost Breakdown
Surety bond costs are provided as dollars per thousand, represented by the dollar amount with a capital M. The premium formula is as follows: you bond amount x your rate / 1000. You can also look at the rate as a percentage of the bond amount you must pay. For instance, a 1% rate ($10 / M) on a $10,000 bond would cost you $100. The table below shows example calculations based on these factors.
| $10 / M | $15 / M | $30 / M | $50 / M | $75 / M | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $5,000 Surety Bond | $100* | $100* | $150 | $250 | $375 |

Sample Surety Bond Cost Calculation
Let’s say you need a $25,000 surety bond for your business, and the rate provided based on your credit history, business financial statements, and experience in the industry is $15 per thousand. This means the cost of your surety bond is $375, or 1.5% of the bond amount needed.
If you have less than ideal credit or minimal experience in your industry, your rate may be higher. For the same $25,000 bond with a rate of $50/M, the cost of your bond is $1,250. This is equal to 5% of the total bond amount.
Go Direct with JW Surety Bonds
As the nation’s largest volume producing MGU, we work with thousands of insurance brokers that are unable to get their clients’ bonds approved without our specialty bond programs and rates. If you apply with another agency, it may result in your applications being submitted to us, but with an unnecessary middle-man involved.
Working with JW Surety Bonds means you’re in direct contact with the decision maker for the approval of your bond. Most agencies have to provide your bond request to a carrier side underwriter, which slows the process tremendously. And further, to access specialty programs, these smaller agencies must submit your bond request to one of the few bond MGU specialists in the country. JW Surety Bonds is the nationally recognized leading volume MGU in the United States.
