You will pay an amount that is typically a small percentage of the bond required. A factor in determining the amount you will pay is not only your credit score (which is very important in itself), but also your assets, source(s) of income, net worth, legal obligations, investments, etc., and the ability to repay any claims.As principal of this surety bond, should a claim ever be paid against your bond for failure to act responsibly which is subsequently paid, you are responsible to reimburse the surety for all costs and fees. That amount, however, will not exceed the amount of the bond required.Whether you choose to prepay the bond for several years, or pay annually.Annual Renewal of PremiumYes; the Virginia probate bond, of whatever type, has an annual renewal of premium for as long as the bond is active.
