What is the Nebraska certificate title bond?
Nebraska Revised Statute 60-167 requires individuals without official vehicle ownership titles file a surety bond for registration. Nebraska residents can also file a bond with the state if a title hasn't previously been issued for their vehicle or if it currently has a bonded title in another state. The DMV does not require bonded titles for ATVs, UTVs, or minibikes unless a title was previously issued by the state.
Why do you need a Nebraska certificate of title bond?
The lost title bond protects any prior owner, prior lienholder, or any subsequent purchaser of the vehicle from expenses, losses, or damages resulting from certificate of title issuance. If the original title is found and a valid claim is made against the bond, the surety company will pay damages up to the full bond amount, which the bonded vehicle owner must then reimburse.
This bond is required to register a vehicle without an original title. If you plan to sell vehicles, a separate Nebraska motor vehicle dealer bond is required.
Who registers vehicles with missing titles?
The Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles enforces registration requirements for vehicles missing titles. If you have questions about registering your vehicle or submitting a bonded title application, call 1 (402) 471-3918 or email [email protected].
How do I determine my bond amount?
