What is a California Contractor’s License Bond?

Effective January 1, 2023, the California Contractor State License Board requires an increase from $15,000 to $25,000 for Contractor License Bonds and $12,500 to $25,000 for Qualifying Individual Bonds.  By posting a contractor's bond, contractors pledge to comply with the business and Professions Code (Division 3, Chapter 9).  The bond protects harmed parties from financial loss up to the full amount of the bond if the contractor fails to comply with the law and the terms of the surety bond agreement.  The principal must reimburse the surety for all of the damages paid out.

These bonds remain in full force and effect until canceled.  The surety can cancel the bond in accordance with the provisions of Section 996.310 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

The applicant's license or application number and classification(s) are required from all applicants for quoting and approval.
