What is a Wyoming certificate of title bond?
Wyoming Statute 31-2-105 requires individuals file a surety bond if they have insufficient vehicle ownership evidence. The Wyoming title bond is a one-time, non-refundable instrument that allows a new vehicle title to be issued for registration when the original title is not available. The bond protects any prior owner, lien holder, or subsequent purchaser against expenses, losses, or damages resulting from the certificate of title issuance.
If the individual turns out not to be the legal vehicle owner, the surety company will pay any valid claim up to the full bond amount. The bonded vehicle owner must then reimburse the surety company for damages paid.
Who registers vehicles in Wyoming?
Although the Wyoming Department of Transportation enforces bonded title requirements, individual county clerk offices manage vehicle registration in Wyoming. All vehicle registration paperwork will be filed with your local county clerk, who will also issue your bonded title once your application is approved.
Please note a Wyoming lost title bond is required if you have insufficient vehicle ownership. If you plan to sell vehicles, a separate Wyoming vehicle dealer bond is required.
What are the conditions of the Wyoming certificate of title bond?
Wyoming law requires bond amounts be 2 times the vehicle's value at the time of the application as determined from any current national appraisal guide. If you need help determining your required bond amount, the state advises to request a certified written appraisal statement from a licensed Wyoming vehicle dealer before purchasing your surety bond.
Certificate of title bonds are not required to register vehicles valued at less than $2,500. The minimum bond amount required is $5,000.
How do I update or change my lost title bond form?

Do I need to renew my vehicle ownership surety bond?
