What is a Preneed Establishment License Bond?

In the State of North Carolina, every funeral establishment that is applying for a license is required to submit a surety bond to the North Carolina Board of Funeral Service.

If the licensed funeral establishment causes harm to another person (ex. preneed contract purchaser, preneed contract purchaser’s beneficiary, or legal representative) by violating any of the laws and rules that govern preneed funeral establishments in North Carolina, the said aggrieved person will be compensated.

 

The compensation will be done through a bond claim that will be filed by the Obligee of the surety bond.
