Why do I need this bond?
By posting a Florida pawnbroker surety bond, principals (pawnbrokers) pledge not to violate any terms found in 539.001-539.003 of the Florida Statutes, which is also referred to as the Florida Pawnbroking Act. If the pawnbroker fails to adhere to these terms and does not perform services as contracted, the bond protects harmed parties from financial loss.
What’s the fine print?
Florida pawnbroking bonds have a set expiration of 1 year after the sign and seal date. The surety can cancel the bond prior to the expiration date by giving notice of intent to cancel to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services 30 days prior to the desired termination date.
