It’s important to understand that the term surety bond is an umbrella term that is used to refer to hundreds of different kinds of bonds.  Farm labor contractor bond is a type of bond that is required by the United States Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division under section H-2a of the Immigration and nationality Act.  If you have labors working for your farm that are considered H-2a under this act then the bond is required.  The amount of the bond depends on the number of employees:
- $5,000 for a labor certification with fewer than 25 employees

- $10,000 for a labor certification with 25 to 49 employees

- $20,000 for a labor certification with 50 to 74 employees

- $50,000 for a labor certification with 75 to 99 employees

- $75,000 for a labor certification with 100 or more employees
