What this bond does
The ownership bond addresses the title-related security required for the identified vehicle. The department still determines whether the ownership and security-interest documentation supports title issuance.
- Who needs it
- A Washington motor vehicle applicant directed to provide ownership-bond security matching this offering.
- Who it protects
- Prior owners, secured parties and subsequent purchasers covered by the required form against specified title-related losses. The bond does not clear liens or establish ownership.

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.
