I cannot find anything in my large dictionary and Google is bringing up rubbish for the term ie stealing identity and the like.>> Hello Anne, I don't think I've ever heard of a Bond of Identity. If you saw it referred to in an original document, do you think you might have misread Bond of Indemnity? If not, can you supply some context for the term? Where have you seen references to it?
