Ok I just reviewed section 392 of the finance code. § 392.101. Bond Requirement (a) A third-party debt collector or credit bureau may not engage in debt collection unless the third-party debt collector or credit bureau has obtained a surety bond issued by a surety company authorized to do business in this state as prescribed by this section. A copy of the bond must be filed with the secretary of state. (b) The bond must be in favor of: (1) any person who is damaged by a violation of this chapter; and (2) this state for the benefit of any person who is damaged by a violation of this chapter. (c) The bond must be in the amount of $10,000. Acts 1997, 75th Leg., ch. 1008, § 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1997. I can't find where it says that this applies only to instate collectors... It states it is required to collect. Maybe I am missing something. Any other thoughts?
