About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Louisiana licenses used motor vehicle dealers — including specialty dealers operating a used motor vehicle facility — through the Louisiana Used Motor Vehicle Commission. The license is conditioned on a surety bond, and the facility-level requirement is $10,000.

The bond is a consumer-and-public-protection guarantee: it stands behind clear title on the vehicles you sell and your compliance with Louisiana's used motor vehicle laws. If a dealer fails to deliver clear title, misapplies a buyer's money, or violates dealer law, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

The bond runs continuously. If it is canceled and not replaced within 30 days, your license to do business is revoked — so we track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing in place.

Louisiana Used Motor Vehicle Commission ($10,000 facility bond)The Louisiana Used Motor Vehicle Commission licenses used motor vehicle dealers and conditions the license on a continuous surety bond; the requirement for a used motor vehicle facility is $10,000. A canceled bond not replaced within 30 days results in revocation of the license — confirm the bond amount and form on your Commission application.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

Do I pay the $10,000? +
No. You pay $300 — the flat 3% of the bond amount. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the state and harmed buyers; it's not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond? +
The Louisiana Used Motor Vehicle Commission requires it as a condition of a used-vehicle-facility license. No active bond, no license.
What does the bond guarantee? +
That you deliver clear title on the vehicles you sell, handle customer funds properly, and follow Louisiana used motor vehicle law. If you fail to and someone is harmed, they can claim against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It's the only extra step beyond the application, and it informs approval, not price. The rate is a flat 3% either way.
What if my bond gets canceled? +
A canceled bond must be replaced within 30 days or the Commission revokes your license. We track expirations and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so it stays continuous.
