The $50,000 California fee-related talent service bond is a requirement of talent agencies, as per the Department of Industrial Relations. The premium is $500 annually; there is no credit inquiry. Please call AmeriPro Surety Bonds today at 844-589-9732.
The California Department of Industrial Relations, which oversees and regulates talent agencies, requires that any person or business entity that arranges for someone to operate in the entertainment industry must obtain a license to operate.
At the time of the submission of your license, and subsequent to the renewal of an existing license, you must also obtain a $50,000 surety bond.
You and/or your business talent agency business entity are automatically approved for the $50,000 California fee-related talent service bond.
This is because there is no credit check nor underwriter review; and the premium is $500 annually.
Obtaining this bond is easy. When you call us, we’ll ask you the name, exactly as it should appear on your surety bond. This name should match the other paperwork you will be or have provided to the Department.
If there is a DBA name, we’ll need that as well.
After also providing us with your address, email, and phone number, we’ll take the payment of $500.
Thereafter, your bond is issued to you immediately. Along with your original surety bond, we’ll include a notarized jurat as Surety and a Power of Attorney form. You’ll sign your original bond as Principal and file it to:
