What this bond does
The offering supports the bond portion of a commercial driver training school certification file. It is separate from an individual instructor application and from the broader approval of the school.
- Who needs it
- An owner applying to certify a Georgia driver training school or maintaining the security required during school recertification.
- Who it protects
- The official DDS instructions identify Georgia DDS as obligee. Use its accepted school bond form to establish the covered obligations; do not treat the bond as vehicle insurance or assume it guarantees every student's outcome.

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
Is the bond required for each school location?
DDS's current school-owner instructions list a $10,000 principal sum for each location. Confirm how your locations must appear on the accepted document.
Can I mail the school application after buying the bond?
The DDS driver training page says applications and supporting documents must be submitted online and paper applications are no longer accepted.
What does DDS list for renewal of the existing security?
The recertification checklist calls for a continuation or verification certificate for the existing bond. Confirm the document and dates for your school.
Does this purchase certify an instructor too?
No. DDS describes school and instructor certification separately. Bond issuance does not approve either application.
