What this bond does
This bond protects the State of Wyoming and individuals from financial losses or damages resulting from the issuance of a new certificate of title when clear evidence of ownership or lien status is missing. It serves as a guarantee that the owner will indemnify any party harmed by this issuance.

- Who it protects
- This is a surety bond that provides coverage in the event of claims regarding the vehicle's title, up to the bond amount. The aggregate liability of the surety is limited to the total bond amount, regardless of the number of claimants.
