The Nebraska Collection Agency Bond is a type of surety bond required by the Nebraska Collection Agency Licensing Board to obtain a collection agency license in the state. While the bond is a requirement of the state, the licensing is managed by the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS) and the surety bond will be filed electronically by Surety1.com with the NMLS

A collection agency license is required of:

  • All persons, firms, corporations, and associations directly or indirectly engaged in soliciting, from more than one person, firm, corporation, or association, claims of any kind owed or due orNebraska Collection Agency Bond asserted to be owed or due such solicited person, firm, corporation, or association, and all persons, firms, corporations, and associations directly or indirectly engaged in asserting, enforcing, or prosecuting such claims.
  • Any person, firm, corporation, or association which, in attempting to collect or in collecting his, her, or its own accounts or claims, uses a fictitious name or any name other than his, her, or its own name which would indicate to the debtor that a third person is collecting or attempting to collect such account or claim.

other indebtedness (not including mortgage indebtedness).
