If you own a valuable document or instrument that has been lost, stolen or destroyed, more than likely then you will need a Lost Instrument Surety Bond. The required bond protects the original issuer from a financial loss that may be a result of issuing a duplicate. Often, the original issuer will also require you to complete a Lost Instrument Affidavit.

Lost Instrument Surety Bonds:

A Fixed Penalty Bond is for an instrument or document that keeps the same value as when purchased or acquired, such as a certified check.

An Open Penalty Bond is for an instrument or document that can change in value, such as a stock certificate (common or preferred).

Examples of lost instruments:

  • Common Stock Certificate
  • Savings Bankbook
  • Check
  • Money Order
  • Cashier’s Check
  • Certificate of Deposit
  • Other Financial Securities
  • Preferred Stock Certificate
  • Unclaimed Property
  • How Much Will This Surety Bond Cost?

    The premium or “cost” for a lost instrument surety bond depends on the amount of the bond needed and if you need a fixed or open penalty bond. Fixed and open penalty bonds start as low as 1.5% with good credit. SuretyGroup.com provides quotes at no cost or obligation. We are here to help.
