Commercial Requester Account Bond

The commercial requester account bond is required from California businesses who want to access information from the state DMV that they need for their operations. Applicants have to complete the Commercial Requester Account Application, and file a California commercial requester account bond with the official bond form.

The bond acts as protection for the California DMV, that any entity that accesses information from the authority’s databases will cover all due costs incurred. It ensures requesters’ legal compliance.

Businesses who want to have a California commercial requester account have to post a $50,000 bond. To obtain the bond, you need to pay a bond premium, which is only a few percentages of the bond amount. If your finances are in good shape, this means about 1%-3%, or $500-$1,500.

Your commercial requester account bond cost is determined on the basis of your personal and business finances. Your surety has to consider your credit score, business financials, and other assets. You are likely to pay a lower bond premium if you are assessed as a low-risk applicant with solid finances.

It’s important to remember that surety bonds are not insurance for your business. Their purpose is to guarantee your legal compliance and protect the state authorities that have issued your account. If you fail to abide by applicable rules, you can get a bond claim.

Proven bond claims are a serious financial threat for your business. You may be liable to pay a reimbursement up to the penal sum of your bond. While your surety covers it at first, you have to compensate it fully afterwards. Thus, bond claims should be avoided as much as possible. They can also prevent you from obtaining the bond you need in the future.
