What it is and who needs it.
What the fleet registration bond actually covers
North Dakota offers fleet registration to large vehicle owners as an administrative convenience — instead of registering each vehicle on its own staggered cycle, an owner of 100 or more vehicles can register them together as a fleet through the NDDOT Motor Vehicle Division.
Because fleet registration consolidates the registration and the fees the owner owes the state, the NDDOT requires a $10,000 corporate surety bond as a financial backstop for the registration fees and taxes tied to the fleet. The bond runs to the State of North Dakota.
The bond guarantees the fleet owner pays the registration fees and taxes due on the fleet. If the owner fails to pay, the state can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, the owner repays the surety. We issue the $10,000 standard amount (or a larger figure if the NDDOT requires one) with pricing from $100; no credit check up to $10,000.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the NDDOT Motor Vehicle Division. Submit the executed bond with your fleet registration. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the state insists.
What sets the price
The premium is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $10,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
