What is this bond?

A Nebraska Certificate of Title Bond is a type of surety bond used when a vehicle's original title is missing, defective, or improperly assigned. It guarantees that the applicant is the true owner of the vehicle and provides a financial safety net for subsequent buyers, lienholders, or rightful owners in case someone else claims ownership later.

Who needs it?

Vehicle owners in Nebraska who cannot provide standard proof of ownership typically need this bond to register, sell, or insure their vehicle. It is commonly required for those who have purchased a vehicle without receiving a title, lost a title before transferring it into their name, or received a vehicle as a gift without proper paperwork.

Why is it required?

The Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles generally requires this bond to protect against vehicle theft and title fraud. It ensures compensation for rightful owners or lenders if a bonded title is issued improperly. Because circumstances vary, applicants must verify specific title requirements directly with the issuing agency.
