About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A motor vehicle broker arranges or negotiates vehicle sales between buyers and sellers for a fee, without holding the vehicles in inventory. Nevada licenses brokers through the DMV under Chapter 482, and NRS 482.3333 requires a broker to procure and file a $100,000 bond before licensure.

The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee. By statute it is conditioned on the broker conducting business without breaching a consumer contract, engaging in a deceptive trade practice, fraud, or fraudulent representation, and without violating Chapter 482. Consumers injured by the broker or its employees have recourse against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay in force for the life of your broker license. Brokers who deal straight with their customers treat it as a license formality, not a risk.

NRS 482.3333 (DMV)Under NRS 482.3333, before a person may be licensed as a motor vehicle broker in Nevada they must procure and file with the DMV a $100,000 bond with a corporate surety, approved as to form by the Attorney General, conditioned that the broker conduct business without breaching a consumer contract, engaging in a deceptive trade practice, fraud, or fraudulent representation, and without violating Chapter 482. Consumers injured by the broker have recourse against the bond.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

Do I pay the $100,000? +
No. You pay $3,000 — the flat 3% of the bond amount. The $100,000 is the surety's maximum liability to harmed consumers; it's not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond? +
The Nevada DMV, as a condition of a motor vehicle broker license under NRS 482.3333. No active bond, no license.
What does the bond guarantee? +
That you conduct broker business without breaching a consumer contract, committing a deceptive trade practice, fraud, or fraudulent representation, and without violating Chapter 482. Injured consumers can claim against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It informs approval, not price. The rate is a flat 3% either way.
When does it renew? +
Terms run 1, 2, or 3 years. We send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, and the bond must stay in force for your broker license to stay valid.
