Nevada requires an authorized emission station to post a bond with the DMV Emission Control Program as a condition of its authorization. This is the $10,000 bond — ours is $300 flat, 3% of the bond amount, with no credit check on this bond.
















Emission station bonds are simple. Here's the entire process:
Business details, the station address, and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit check section.
Small fixed-amount 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 arrives by email, ready to file with your emission station authorization. The original is mailed to the address you give, signed by you before filing with the obligee.
$10,000 bond × 3% = $300, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
Nevada runs a vehicle Emission Control Program through the DMV in Clark and Washoe counties, and authorizes private stations to perform emission inspections. As a condition of that authorization, a station posts a bond for the benefit of the Department and the public.
The bond backs the station’s honest performance and compliance with the emission program rules — it stands behind any fraud, fraudulent representation, or violation of the applicable provisions of NRS chapters 445A, 445B and 598 and the related NAC rules by an inspector or agent of the station.
This page covers the $10,000 bond. The exact amount and conditions are fixed by the DMV program, so there is no quote process — the bond must stay active for as long as your station is authorized, and we track it and notify you ahead of expiration.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
