How Does an Illinois Testing Station Bond Work? 

An Illinois motor vehicle testing station bond creates a legal contract between these three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the official testing station owner filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Illinois Department of Transportation requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding all applicable provisions of Chapter 13 of Illinois Vehicle Code. 

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 testing station bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
