How Does a Mississippi Hunting/Fishing License Agent Bond Work?

By filing a hunting and fishing license bond, you enter a contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: The license agent purchasing and upholding the bond contract 
  2. Obligee: The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries & Parks requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

If you, as the principal, break the bond terms, harmed parties can file a claim for reimbursement. The surety will validate and pay claims up to the full bond amount. You are then responsible for repaying the surety.
