Alabama Lost Title Bond

The Alabama Lost Title Bond is required by the Alabama Department of Revenue, Motor Vehicle Division. When the title of a vehicle is damaged or cannot be produced, they generally request that you obtain a surety bond. The bond is very easy to obtain, all we need is a filled out application and we can get the bond approved for $100 in most cases. 

YOU MUST APPLY FOR THE BOND WITH THE STATE BEFORE  YOU APPLY FOR THE BOND WITH US. Click here to apply for the bond with the state.  

The bond does not protect you; it actually protects the Department of Revenue from you, in case someone else with the title to the vehicle claims that it is theirs.
