About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the driving school bond actually guarantees

Nevada licenses driving schools through the DMV under the driving-school provisions of NRS Chapter 483. NRS 483.770 conditions an operator's license on a continuous surety bond, and the DMV files it on form OBL-277 — it must be signed by a principal of the school and executed by a corporate surety authorized in Nevada.

The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee. It is conditioned that the operator runs the school without fraud or fraudulent representation — so students who are defrauded, or who pay for instruction the school fails to deliver, have a financial backstop to recover against.

The statutory amount is $10,000, and the DMV may reduce it to $5,000 for an operator who has satisfactorily conducted the school for the five years immediately preceding the request. Whatever amount applies to you, premiums start from $100, with no credit section in the application.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Nevada driving school bond?Premiums start from $100 and are priced by bond amount. The standard bond is $10,000 under NRS 483.770, or $5,000 if the DMV has reduced your bond. Enter your amount and your exact price appears at the application.
Can my bond be reduced to $5,000?Yes. Under NRS 483.770, the DMV may reduce a driving-school operator's bond to not less than $5,000 if the operator has satisfactorily conducted the school for the five years immediately before the request. We re-issue at the lower amount once the DMV approves it.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly. Larger bond amounts may get a quick review, and if a check ever runs it's a soft pull that never touches your credit score.
What does the bond protect against?It backs your obligation to run the school without fraud or fraudulent representation. If a student is defrauded or pays for instruction the school fails to deliver, they can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Which form do I file?DMV form OBL-277, signed by a principal of the school, filed with your driving-school operator license application. We provide the executed bond ready to submit.
