What is the purpose of a Motor Vehicle Surety Bond?

& How to Get Bonded

If you want to be an auto dealer, you must get bonded. Motor Vehicle Dealer bonds help regulate the market of motor vehicle dealers under state regulation. These bonds protect against fraud or misconduct on behalf of your business and employees and guarantee the moral compliance of your business. In short, bonds function to protect both the state of New York and the customer of your business. Your surety bond ensures that the business will follow the laws of ethical business.

Much like other surety bonds that Surety1 offers, auto dealer bonds help create a market that the customer can trust. This will reflect well on your business, too; customers will be drawn to the comforting feeling of shopping with a responsible dealer.

You can apply for your dealer bond required by the state by visiting our application page and we will streamline the bonding process for you, making getting a bond the easiest part of opening your business. After submitting the application on our website, you will receive a quote in your email as well as a phone call from one of our helpful agents. If you like the premium we quote you, we can issue your bond and send a signed and sealed copy directly to you either by overnight shipping or priority mail. Once you submit the official bond to the New York DMV, you will be ready to open  your dealership and start selling!
