IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RELEASE OF SECURITY BOND MONEY

Everyone signing the form must physically sign either in pen or by using a stylus. Bonds Administration does not accept electronic signatures, including cut and pasted signatures or those applied using eSignature software such as DocuSign.
If the bond was electronically lodged, we will require more information to verify your signature before the bond can be released. Please attach signed ID or the lease agreement to verify the signatures of all parties.

2. Bond disputes
Bonds Administration will notify all parties who have not signed this form that an application to release the bond has been made.

The Commissioner may decide how the bond will be released. For information about residential bond disputes, go to https://www.consumerprotection.wa.gov.au/commissioner-determinations.
