An Oregon Surety Bond is a form of financial guarantee required by the State of Oregon. It is a three-party agreement between a principal, an obliged, and a surety company. The principal is required by the state to obtain a bond, and the surety company provides the guarantee that the principal will meet their obligations as stipulated in the bond. The obliged is the entity that is protected by the bond, and is usually the State of Oregon itself. Types of Oregon Surety Bonds include Construction Performance Bonds, Contractor License Bonds, Motor Vehicle Dealer Bonds, Motor Vehicle Manufacturer/Wholesaler/Distributor Bonds, Motor Vehicle Repair Shop Bonds, Motor Vehicle Title Service Bonds, Mortgage Broker Bonds, and Public Adjuster Bonds.
