In Texas, a motor vehicle dealer bond is a requirement for individuals applying for a Texas dealership license. According to Texas Transportation Code: Sec. 503.004, a 2-year $50,000 surety bond must be filed with the TX MVD during the application process. Each county in which the dealership operates requires a separate bond and business license. The bond language mandates that bonded dealers and dealerships pay all valid bank drafts for purchased motor vehicles and transfer titles for each motor vehicle sold.
A Texas Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond is required by the Texas DMV to obtain a Texas Motor Vehicle Dealer License. Filing a Texas MVD bond means you agree to follow the Texas Transportation Code when operating your dealership. It's important to note that failing to fulfill the bond's terms as outlined in the Texas code can result in claims being filed against your bond. In the event an individual obtains a judgment against you as a dealer, the surety company will pay valid claims up to the full $50,000 bond amount, which you must then reimburse.
The Texas auto dealer bond amount was increased from $25,000 to $50,000 by the DMV on September 1, 2021. Texas Department of Motor Vehicles enforces the $50,000 surety bond requirement for the state's dealerships, making them the bond's "obligee." The "principal" refers to the dealership that purchases and files the bond, while the "surety" is the company that issues the bond, backs its obligations, and pays claims. To maintain a good standing with the DMV, Texas motor vehicle dealer bonds must be renewed when the current 2-year term expires. When your current bond term is nearing the renewal period, a ProSure Group Agent will reach out with your renewal information. Simply pay your ProSure Group renewal invoice, and renewal instructions will be emailed to you along with a continuation certificate for your original Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond. Keeping up with your bond renewal is important to ensure your Texas dealer license is in compliance with Texas regulations.
