How Does a Wisconsin CDL Third-Party Tester Bond Work? 

As with all surety bonds, a commercial driver license third-party tester bond creates a legal contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the CDL tester company owner(s) filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Department of Transportation, CDL Unit requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding all applicable provisions of the Wisconsin Administrative Code and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations

If you break the bond terms, harmed clients or the state can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

To renew your commercial driver license third-party tester bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date. 

You’ll receive a continuation certificate to file with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, CDL Unit as proof of ongoing coverage.
