What this bond does
A title bond provides security for the ownership-related obligation described in the requested form. The title application still needs the ownership evidence and other materials the title office asks for.
- Who needs it
- An Arkansas title applicant directed to furnish security for missing or inadequate title documentation.
- Who it protects
- People with covered title-related claims under the bond. The bond does not resolve a dispute over who owns the asset.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Should I buy before the title office reviews my situation?
First confirm that a bond is the route the office wants for your file. Missing paperwork alone does not establish that.
Is a fixed amount shown here?
No. Enter the amount required for your application rather than guessing from the sale price.
Where is the application?
Purchase Now opens RLI in a new tab. Complete the bond application there, then follow your Arkansas title submission instructions.
