How Does an Alabama Motor Club Bond Work?
A motor club bond creates a legal contract between these three parties:
- Principal: You, the motor club owner(s) filing the bond
- Obligee: The Alabama Department of Insurance requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding the provisions of Alabama State Code Title 27 Chapter 39.
If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you must ultimately refund the surety.
How Do I Renew My Bond?
These bonds expire annually. To renew your motor club bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted.
We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
