The West Virginia collection agency bond is a separate $5000 surety bond required for each location of your collection agency business. The bond is issued within minutes for just $100 annually. Please call AmeriPro Surety Bonds at 844-589-9732.
Collection agencies in West Virginia are licensed and regulated by the state’s Tax Department.
A condition of licensing is that you obtain a collection agency surety bond which, according to the Commissioner should run concurrently with your registration tax period.
The bond amount is $5000; however, that amount is for each office or branch location of your collection agency business. If you purchase more than one collection agency bond for West Virginia, each bond will be issued individually for each office location.
You are automatically approved for the $5000 West Virginia collection agency bond. There is no underwriter review nor a credit inquiry.
The surety bond application – which we’ll take from you over the phone – merely consists of providing the name on your surety bond, the address, and contact information.
After payment of the $100 premium, our office issues the bond to you immediately and mails it to you by the following business day, along with your Power of Attorney (POA) form. Once received, you’ll sign the bond as Principal, and after having it notarized, file your bond and POA to the Tax Department.
