What Makes A Surety2000 eBond Legally Enforceable?

eBonds carry the same legal weight as paper — and significantly more evidentiary strength.

  1. UETA And E-Sign Act: Neither a signature nor a record may be denied legal effect solely because it is in electronic form.

  2. Mutual Consent At Registration: All parties consent to transact electronically at registration — a documented, auditable agreement.

  3. Secure Retention And Access: All parties maintain access to bond records via a secure web-based platform, satisfying retention requirements.

  4. Digital Signatures And Audit Log: All parties digitally sign with an electronic audit log of every action — unalterable and defensible in any dispute.

  5. Unalterable After Execution: Documents and signatures are saved in a secure manner that cannot be modified after execution.

  6. Unique Bond Number: Every eBond carries a unique identifier that cannot be duplicated, preventing reuse or counterfeiting.
