What must be done within thirty days of executing an agency contract?

Filing a notice of appointment is a critical step that ensures the appropriate regulatory authorities are aware of the agent's engagement with the surety company. This notice serves to formally establish the legal relationship between the agent and the surety company, indicating that the agent is authorized to act on behalf of the surety in writing bail bonds. It is a necessary procedure to maintain compliance with state regulations governing bail practices.

While notifying current clients, completing training, and submitting reports can be significant in other contexts, they do not hold the same regulatory requirement within the thirty-day window following the execution of an agency contract. The focus within this timeframe is on formalizing the agent's authority to operate, which is achieved through filing the notice of appointment.
