How much does a business opportunity bond cost in Florida?
The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services requires certain individuals to post $50,000 business opportunity surety bonds.
These bonds are subject to underwriting consideration, so the price you’ll pay depends on a review of your personal credit report.

Why do I need this bond?
Florida business opportunity surety bonds are put in place to ensure that principals (licensees) adhere to the provisions of sections 559.80-559.815 of the Florida Statutes, which is also referred to as the Florida Sale of Business Opportunity Act. If the principal does violate this code, the bond protects any consumer who is harmed by the principals actions up to the full penal sum of the bond. The principal must reimburse the surety for all damages paid out.
