Is this an NMLS e-bond or a paper bond in this state?+
Nebraska accepts the money transmitter bond as an NMLS Electronic Surety Bond (ESB). Machaen Insurance Agency files it electronically through the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System, so there's no paper original to sign, notarize, or mail.
Do I need a separate bond for every state I'm licensed in?+
