How Does an Idaho Temporary Merchant Bond Work? 

A temporary merchant, solicitor or peddler bond binds three parties in a legal contract: 

  • Principal: The merchant purchasing the bond to sell goods in Idaho
  • Obligee: The Idaho local government office requiring the bond
  • Surety: The company issuing the bond to the merchant

As a temporary merchant, solicitor or peddler, if your actions cause damages, harmed parties can file a claim on bond. For example, if a merchant does not pay their taxes, the city licensing authority can file a claim for reimbursement from the surety.
