NV garage operator bonds.
$100. Five minutes.
Nevada requires a garage to file a fixed $5,000 bond with the Department of Motor Vehicles to register under NRS 487.563. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price, identical for every garage. Five-minute application, and it collects no credit information.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A Nevada garage that performs repairs or storage registers with the Department of Motor Vehicles, and NRS 487.563 conditions that registration on a $5,000 surety bond (or an equivalent deposit). The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee standing behind honest work and your compliance with Nevada's garage and vehicle-repair laws.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the DMV together with harmed customers. If a garage fails to perform, commits fraud, or violates the repair statutes and a customer is injured, that person can bring an action on the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Operators who do clean work treat the bond as a registration formality, and we keep your $5,000 filing continuous.
