What Are the Most Common Types of Bail Bonds?
When it comes to bail bonds, there may be several options available for friends and family members, and the type of bond you may need will depend on a few factors. Things such as the offense for which the defendant is being charged, what the total amount for bail is, and your current financial situation can all have an effect on the kind of bond you may need. The following types of bail bonds are the most common forms of posting bail.
Surety Bonds
By far the most common state bond, a surety bond, is governed by Florida regulations and stipulates that the bondsman will be paid 10%. The bondsman then provides the remainder of the bond to the court. This is the law. There is NEVER an instance where a bondsman can offer you a deal or charge more than the stipulated 10%. The only exception to this 10% rule is when bail is set under $1,000. Regardless of the amount below $1,000, the cost is $100, not 10%. Since the law is specific, the only difference that separates the multitude of bail bonds companies is the service you will be provided.
Federal Bail Bonds
A federal bail bond comes into play when the alleged crime is of a federal nature or involves interstate criminal activity. Examples of this would be crimes that cross state lines or any crime investigated by a federal agency like the FBI, Post Office, IRS, or Immigration Services. The types of crimes that would require a federal bail bond include tax evasion, drug trafficking, fraud, and kidnapping. As well as any crime that takes place on federal property.
Federal bonds are most often many times higher than a state bond. The premium rate in Florida for a federal bail bond is 15%. Often, a judge will add a “Nebbia” requirement. This means that whoever is paying the bond must provide proof that any collateral or money used is from a legitimate source. The professionals at Bazarte Bail Bonds are experienced in dealing with federal bail bonds and can be instrumental in helping the arrestee deal with these intricacies. We can also help with signature and immigration bonds.
Self-Arrest Bonds
When a person believes there may be an outstanding warrant for their arrest, it is possible for the offender’s bail to be paid without going through the process of being detained in jail. The reason for this is simple. Jails are overcrowded. If someone believes a warrant exists against them, the best course of action is to contact Bazarte Bail Bonds. We can verify the record, explain the process, and accompany you to a facility that accepts self-arrests. We will explain what identification is required and the proper dress code.

They were very quick and efficient in bailing out nephew. Have used them twice now and they are also very considerate and went out of their way to make the process as smooth as possible since I live over 2 hours away. Saved me time and gas. Definitely recommend. Thanks so much for bringing sunshine to this otherwise dreary situation.
