Overview

It protects anyone who relies on your certified weights — ensuring you perform your duties honestly and accurately. Bond Titan makes it fast to get this bond online without waiting on an agent.
Who Needs This Bond?
If you hold or are applying for a Public Weigher license in Texas, this bond is a mandatory part of your licensing requirements. Public weighers who certify the weight of commodities, goods, or materials for commercial transactions must carry this bond statewide. It applies whether you operate a fixed scale facility or provide mobile weighing services. Any individual or business performing public weighing services for hire in Texas needs this bond before they can legally operate.
What is this Bond For?
This bond guarantees that a licensed Texas Public Weigher will perform weighing services honestly, accurately, and in compliance with applicable state requirements. If a weigher falsifies weights, commits fraud, or causes financial harm to a customer through misconduct, the bond provides a financial remedy for affected parties. It is not insurance for the weigher — it protects the public and businesses that depend on accurate, certified measurements. The weigher remains liable for any valid claims paid against the bond.
When is it Required?
Renewal is a critical deadline to track — if your bond lapses, your Public Weigher license authorization can be suspended or revoked by the state. This bond must be active and in force before you begin any licensed public weighing activity in Texas. New applicants must submit proof of this bond as part of the initial licensing process. Keep your bond current to avoid disruptions to your weighing operations.
Where Does it Apply?
This is a statewide Texas requirement administered at the state level. It applies to public weighers operating anywhere within Texas, regardless of the city or county. Any location where you provide certified public weighing services in Texas falls under this bond's coverage.
