If a bondsman does not write any bonds during the month, is a report still required?

• A. Yes
• B. No
• C. Only if there were exonerations
• D. Not required at all

Answer: (A)

Monthly reporting is required regardless of activity because the regulatory system relies on a continuous record of what bail bondsmen are doing. Even if no bonds are written in a month, you still submit a report showing zero activity. This keeps an up-to-date trail for the regulator, confirms you’re maintaining your duties and licenses, and allows any changes or exonerations to be tracked as part of your ongoing record. Exonerations are simply another data point that would appear on the report, but they aren’t the condition for filing—the requirement exists even when there’s no activity. So a report is still required.
