A MVD Bond is necessary to attain your dealer license for the state in which your dealership is in. It does not protect you or your business; but it gives protection for consumer or state from fraud, falsification or any other state statue referenced in the bond form. The bond amount will vary from state to state. The dealership can’t lower or raise the surety bond amount since it is set by the state. Applying for a motor vehicle Bond or Dealer Bond with any surety company is very similar to applying for a loan. The surety then obtains a credit report, review business financials and personal financials. The cause for this is that the surety needs to make sure that if a loss occur and the surety pays out on a claim that you would be able to pay back the surety for the incurred loss. Not like insurance where the insurance company is indemnifying you and restore you to the monetary position you once where at, you are indemnifying the Surety Company. There are a lot of names for this bond some common names are Auto dealer bond and used car dealer bond they are all same MVD bonds just in different terms.
