What it is and who needs it.
What the deputy registrar bond covers
Minnesota appoints deputy registrars to process motor vehicle registrations, titles, and the fees and taxes that go with them. When a deputy registrar is not an officer or employee of a county or statutory or home rule charter city, the deputy must give bond to the state under Minn. Stat. 168.33, subdivision 7.
The bond is in the sum of $10,000, or a larger amount the commissioner requires, conditioned on the deputy faithfully discharging the duties of the office — in particular, properly accounting for and remitting the state fees and taxes collected. If a deputy registrar is also a driver licensing agent, that agent role needs its own separate bond.
If a deputy registrar mishandles public funds, the state can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, the deputy repays the surety. We issue the amount your office requires at a flat $100, with no credit fields in the application.
