How Does a Utah Motor Vehicle Third Party Provider Bond Work?
A motor vehicle third party provider bond creates a legal contract between these three parties:
- Principal: You, the third-party service provider filing the bond
- Obligee: The Utah Motor Vehicle Division requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding the bond terms.
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 vehicle third party bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted.
We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
