What is a Florida Used Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond?

A Florida used motor vehicle dealer bond is a surety bond required to get your used dealer license. The bond guarantees payment to the state if the dealership violates specific laws and rules regarding the sale of a used auto.

Are surety bonds insurance?

Motor vehicle dealer bonds are not insurance. They are a guarantee of payment through an insurance company. This means that if a bond has to pay a loss the bonding company (also known as surety) will require reimbursement from the bond purchaser (also known as the principal). More simply stated, you have to pay the insurance company back for any losses they pay out on behalf of the bond.

Can Florida Used Motor Vehicle Bonds be canceled?

Under most circumstances, yes. If your business closes and you need to cancel the bond, you can request a cancellation from the carrier. Additionally, if your bond is with a higher-risk program with premiums paid in installments, the bond will be canceled if an installment payment is not received on the due date.
