About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What this bond actually covers

Connecticut releases driving history records to requesters who qualify under federal and state driver-privacy law. When a requester receives records under an access agreement, a surety bond can be required as a financial backstop on how the data is used.

The bond is a compliance guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to use the records only for permitted purposes, keep them secure, and meet the terms of your agreement. If you misuse records or breach the agreement and someone is harmed, they can recover against the bond.

There is no single statutory amount we can promise — the figure comes from your access agreement. Tell us the amount required; pricing is variable and starts from $100, and no credit check up to $100,000.

Driver's Privacy Protection Act + CT records rulesAccess to Connecticut driving-history records is governed by the federal Driver's Privacy Protection Act (18 U.S.C. 2721 et seq.) and Connecticut General Statutes on DMV records (including CGS 14-10). When a bond is required, the amount is a term of the records-access agreement rather than a fixed statutory figure — confirm the amount before filing.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with the records authority. Submit the executed bond with your access agreement. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is this bond?Pricing is 0.5% of your bond amount, with a $100 minimum. The amount itself is set in your driving-history records access agreement, so enter that figure and see your exact price at the application.
How is this different from the DMV records bond?They cover the same kind of obligation — protecting driver-record data under an access agreement. Connecticut lists them as separate entities; file whichever your agreement or the authority names. The pricing is identical: 0.5% of your bond amount, $100 minimum.
Is there a credit check?No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score. Most applications approve instantly.
What does the bond protect against?Misuse or improper disclosure of the driving records, and any breach of your access agreement. If a valid claim is paid, you repay the surety — it is not insurance for you.
What amount should I enter?The figure named in your records-access agreement. There's no single statewide amount; send us the agreement if you're unsure and we'll confirm.
Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
