Who Needs a New Hampshire Public Adjuster Bond?

1

Resident Public Adjusters

Resident public adjusters must maintain financial responsibility to obtain and keep a New Hampshire public adjuster license.

2

Nonresident Public Adjusters

Nonresident public adjusters must also maintain financial responsibility when applying for or maintaining a New Hampshire public adjuster license.

3

Multi-State Adjusters

Public adjusters licensed in multiple states should confirm each state’s bond amount, filing method, contract rules, and renewal timing separately.

Why New Hampshire Public Adjusters Need the Bond

New Hampshire requires public adjusters to maintain financial responsibility as part of the public adjuster license requirement. The $20,000 Public Adjuster Bond is one approved way to meet that requirement.

The bond is in favor of the State of New Hampshire and allows recovery by the Insurance Commissioner for the benefit of damaged parties. If the bond terminates or financial responsibility becomes impaired, the public adjuster’s authority may automatically terminate.

License Compliance

The bond helps satisfy New Hampshire’s financial responsibility requirement for public adjuster licensing.

Consumer Protection

The bond helps protect parties who are damaged by covered violations tied to the public adjuster’s license duties.

State Oversight

The bond gives the New Hampshire Insurance Department a financial responsibility mechanism connected to the public adjuster license.

Claim Accountability

If Jet pays a valid bond claim, the bonded principal must reimburse Jet under the indemnity agreement.

Important: The New Hampshire Public Adjuster Bond is not insurance for the public adjuster. It protects damaged parties and supports compliance with the license requirement. If the surety pays a valid claim, the bonded principal is responsible for reimbursing the surety.

New Hampshire Public Adjuster Bond Rules to Know

New Hampshire public adjusters must maintain financial responsibility before license issuance and during the license period. The bond or letter of credit must remain active while the public adjuster license is active.

  • The required financial responsibility amount is $20,000.
  • A surety bond or approved irrevocable letter of credit may satisfy the requirement.
  • The bond is in favor of the State of New Hampshire.
  • The Commissioner may recover on the bond for the benefit of damaged parties.
  • The surety must provide at least 30 days’ prior written notice before termination.
  • If financial responsibility terminates or becomes impaired, the public adjuster’s authority may automatically terminate.
  • Public adjusters are limited to assisting insureds with first-party claims.
  • A public adjuster cannot also represent the insurer on the same claim.

Contact Jet at (855) 516-3348 or [email protected] and we can help confirm the filing method for your license.

Multi-State Public Adjusters

Working across state lines is common during catastrophe seasons and for national adjusting programs. Keep each public adjuster license organized so bonds, filings, contracts, term dates, business entity rules, and renewal requirements do not lapse or get submitted incorrectly.

Bonds Are State Specific

Most states require a separate bond that matches the exact license name, bond form, filing authority, and principal information.

Filing Methods Vary

New Hampshire filing should follow Department instructions, while other states may use uploads, emails, mailed originals, or application attestations.

Pricing Varies by State

Each state limit and license type is priced separately. Do not assume that two states with similar limits will have the same premium.

Renewal Timing Matters

Track license and bond requirements so the public adjuster license remains supported by active financial responsibility.
