What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A motor vehicle damage appraiser inspects damaged vehicles and estimates the cost of repair, typically for insurance claims. Nevada licenses appraisers through the Division of Insurance under NRS Chapter 684B and conditions the license on a $2,500 surety bond.
The bond is a guarantee of honest, competent appraisal work. It stands behind the appraiser's compliance with Nevada insurance law and protects parties harmed by the appraiser's wrongful conduct. Because appraisals drive what claimants are paid, the state wants a small financial backstop in place.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim (up to $2,500), you repay the surety. The bond is continuous until cancelled and must be renewed for as long as you hold the license.
