Georgia requires a licensed commercial driver training school to file a $10,000 bond with the Department of Driver Services — ours is $300 flat, exactly 3% of the bond amount. The application is five minutes, and license bonds like this are the fastest thing we issue.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials and no credit check section on this bond.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your Department of Driver Services license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$10,000 bond × 3% = $300, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
A commercial driver training school is licensed by the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS), and the license is conditioned on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a student-protection guarantee: it stands behind the school's compliance with the laws and rules governing driver-training schools.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Georgia, with your students as the protected parties. If a school violates the driver-training rules or fails to deliver what a student paid for, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and your license can be suspended — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
