A Certificate of Title Bond is a surety bond required of persons applying for a certificate of the title who cannot provide the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Division of Motor Services of the State of Florida with a certificate of title that assigns a prior owner’s interest in the motor vehicle.

The surety bond’s purpose is to financially compensate any security interests that may lay claim on the motor vehicle after the certificate of title has been issued.

The surety bond requirement is in compliance with Section 319.23 of the Florida Statutes.

The bond amount will be determined by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Division of Motor Services of the State of Florida.
