What this bond does

The title bond supports a Department of Revenue title application when the department requires security for the applicant's ownership interest. It is not a substitute for the title application.

Who needs it
Vehicle title applicants directed by Mississippi DOR to furnish certificate of title bond security.
Who it protects
The state form protects covered prior owners, lienholders, subsequent purchasers and persons acquiring security interests against specified ownership/title losses and expenses.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

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.

Match the bond to the vehicle application

DOR's form names the applicant as principal, the State of Mississippi as obligee and the specific vehicle. It requests make, year, model and identification details.

Compare the VIN and ownership records before issuance. Use the security amount required for your DOR title application.

Plan around the thirty-day filing window

The published form states that DOR will not accept the bond unless it is filed within thirty days of its effective date. Coordinate issuance with the remaining title materials.

Its stated security period is three years from the effective date. The form addresses covered losses from issuing the title or defects in the applicant's right, title or interest, including specified reasonable attorney fees.
