Florida Lottery Surety Bond

The Florida Lottery Commission requires the Florida Lottery Surety Bond. The bond is required for any person or entity who applies to become a Florida Lottery retailer. The bond is also required for any lottery vendor who enters into a procurement contract with the Florida Lottery Commission that exceeds $25,000. The purpose of the bond is to protect the Florida Lottery Commission and its customers from financial losses if the retailer or vendor fails to comply with the terms of their contracts. For example, if a retailer fails to remit lottery proceeds to the Florida Lottery Commission, the Commission can file a claim against the bond to recover their losses.
