Texas - Lost Title (No Lien on State Paperwork) — required surety bond in Texas. Apply online in minutes.
A Texas Lost Title Bond is a surety bond that establishes vehicle ownership when the original title is missing, lost, or defective. It guarantees that the applicant is the true owner and protects previous owners, future buyers, and the state against financial loss if a valid claim of ownership is later presented. This specific bond applies strictly to vehicles that do not have any active liens recorded on the state's paperwork.
Texas residents who have acquired a motor vehicle but lack proper ownership documents typically need this bond. It is required for individuals trying to register a vehicle and obtain a new certificate of title when a traditional title is lost, never received, or improperly assigned.
The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles requires this bond to prevent vehicle fraud and protect the public from purchasing stolen or illegally transferred vehicles. By requiring a surety bond, the state ensures a financial safety net is in place to compensate anyone who might suffer damages due to the issuance of a new bonded title.
