How Does a Tennessee Transient Vendor Bond Work? 

In Tennessee, a vendor, peddler or solicitor bond binds three parties in a legal contract: 

  • Principal: The individual or business purchasing the bond 
  • Obligee: The Tennessee government office requiring the bond
  • Surety: The company issuing the bond

If a transient vendor creates damages or financial loss, harmed parties can file a claim for compensation. The surety will pay out valid claims, then the transient vendor must refund the surety.
