Federal State and Immigration Bail Bonds Overview

Immigration Bail Bonds are a form of Federal Bond and Performance Bond combined into one. Immigration Bonds are typically set for detainees held by the US Immigration & Naturalization Service (INS) pending a hearing or court appearance. In almost all cases, there may be several of these hearings before a decision by the Immigration Judge is issued.

Immigration Bonds can be paid using a credit card, money order or via Western Union. Collateral for these bonds can range from partial cash to homes, raw land, credit cards, stocks, bonds, bank CDs, and high-priced items such as boats, airplanes, helicopters, and expensive cars.

State Bonds are also commonly referred to as appearance bonds. These Bonds are set by a Judge of the County or Circuit Court where the accused is being held pending trial.

State Bonds in most states including the State of Florida cost 10%. Some states can be a little more, up to 15%. Collateral for these bonds can range from partial cash to homes, raw land, credit cards, stocks, bonds, bank CDs, and high-priced items such as boats, airplanes, helicopters, and expensive cars.
