About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the service auto shop bond actually covers

Unlike a state license bond, a Mississippi service auto shop bond is generally not a single statewide mandate — there is no one statute that requires every repair or service shop in the state to post a surety bond. We will not imply one that does not exist.

In practice, an auto service shop is asked for a bond by an obligee with a specific interest: a vehicle service-contract or warranty program enrolling the shop as a participating facility, a lender or floor-plan provider, a manufacturer or fleet program, or a city or county that conditions a business privilege on a bond. The bond protects that obligee against losses if the shop fails to perform the work or honor the terms it agreed to.

Because there is no statutory figure, the amount is whatever your program or jurisdiction names. Enter that figure and pricing is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — no credit check up to $25,000 except for LLCs. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety; it is not insurance for the shop.

No single statewide mandate — obligee-set requirementMississippi does not impose a single statewide surety-bond requirement on all auto service or repair shops. A “service auto shop” bond is typically required by a specific obligee — a vehicle service-contract or warranty program, a lender, a manufacturer or fleet program, or a local jurisdiction — which sets both the obligee and the amount. (Vehicle service contracts themselves are regulated separately under Miss. Code Title 83, Chapter 65, which generally relies on reimbursement insurance rather than a shop bond.) Confirm the amount and obligee with whoever is requiring the bond.

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

Deliver to whoever required it. Submit the executed bond to your program administrator, lender, or local jurisdiction. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $25,000 for individuals, partnerships and corporations (above that, a soft pull at most); for LLCs, one soft pull at every amount, never a hard inquiry.

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

One application, issued on the spot.

FAQ

Common questions.

Does Mississippi require every auto service shop to be bonded?No — there is no single statewide statute that bonds all auto service or repair shops. This bond is typically required by a specific obligee: a service-contract or warranty program, a lender or fleet program, or a local jurisdiction. We will not imply a state mandate that does not exist.
How much is it?Pricing is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum. Because there is no statutory amount, you enter whatever figure your program, lender, or jurisdiction asked for and your exact price appears at the application.
Is there a credit check?No credit check up to $25,000 for individuals, partnerships and corporations, and above that a soft pull at most, which never affects your score; for LLCs, one soft credit pull at every amount, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score. Most applications approve instantly.
What does the bond protect against?It protects whoever required it against losses if the shop fails to perform the work or honor the terms it agreed to. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — it is not insurance for the shop.
What amount should I choose if I’m not sure?Ask whoever is requiring the bond for the exact figure — there is no statewide default. Send us the request or the bond form and we will confirm the amount and obligee before issuing.
