About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the driver school bond actually covers

Utah licenses commercial driver training schools through the Driver License Division of the Department of Public Safety, under Utah Code Title 53, Chapter 3, Part 5 (the Commercial Driver Training Schools Act). A school that teaches driving for pay must hold a license, and the Division conditions it on a surety bond.

Administrative Rule R708-2-5 sets the bond at a minimum of $5,000, though a testing-only school is generally not required to bond unless it has been authorized to conduct behind-the-wheel training. The bond protects students and the public against a school's failure to meet its obligations under the Act.

It's a three-party guarantee: you (the principal), the surety, and the State of Utah, with harmed students as the protected parties. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — so schools that operate straight treat the bond as a license formality. Enter the amount the Division named and we issue it at a flat 3%.

Utah Code 53-3-505 · Admin Rule R708-2-5Utah commercial driver training schools are licensed by the Driver License Division under Utah Code Title 53, Chapter 3, Part 5 (Commercial Driver Training Schools Act). Administrative Rule R708-2-5 requires each school to obtain a surety bond of at least $5,000; a testing-only school is exempt unless authorized to conduct behind-the-wheel training. Confirm your required amount with the Division.

Is there a credit check? +
No — the driver school bond is issued with no credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
What amount should I choose? +
Rule R708-2-5 sets a $5,000 minimum, and that is what most schools post. If the Division has named a higher amount on your application, enter that figure. Send us the requirement and we will confirm.
