Certainly the length of time in business can affect Surety's approval of a bond. Depending upon the bond type, it can also affect the premium. Keep in mind though, that personal credit of the owners of the company is also a factor. The larger the bond, the better it is to have been in business for a while - especially if you are able to provide business financial statements.
