But unlike ordinary employment, becoming a bail bondsman requires more than just your Resume. Read on to know what steps you should take to assume the role of an important part of North Carolina’s criminal justice system.
You should be at least 21 years old at the time of application
You must be a resident of North Carolina for at least 6 months
You have no outstanding bail bonds whatsoever
You must have not committed any drug misdemeanors in the past 2 years
You must possess a current North Carolina driver’s license or similar ID
You were never convicted for any felonies in the USA
Take note that you will have to pay a fee of about $450 for this class. Current military personnel, or those who were honorably discharged, may receive a $100 discount.
However, you need an emailed approval letter from a supervising bail agent before you are allowed to schedule and take the exam. The approval letter will be issued after you pass a background check. Read on to find out how to get your approval letter.
Be advised that fingerprinting takes the most time in the application for bondsman process, so you should do this even before you take the class to expedite the processing of your license application. After you’ve completed all the requirements, expect to receive your approval letter via email after 30-45 days.
You can then schedule and take the exam. If you fail the exam, you must wait for a year before you can repeat your application and pay fees all over again.
Getting your license can take time, but it can be worth the effort. Absolute Bail Bonds Inc. is here to help you through your journey. Contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
