Utah - Lost Vehicle Title (Insufficient Evidence of Ownership) — required surety bond in Utah. Apply online in minutes.
The Utah Lost Vehicle Title Bond is a surety bond required when a vehicle owner lacks sufficient evidence of ownership to properly register their vehicle. It serves as a financial guarantee protecting the state, lienholders, and rightful owners from damages if it is later proven that the applicant does not legally own the vehicle.
Utah residents trying to register and title a motor vehicle, trailer, or watercraft without a valid, original title generally need this bond. This typically includes individuals who bought a vehicle with only a bill of sale, received a defective title, or lost the assigned title before transferring it into their name.
The Utah Division of Motor Vehicles requires this bond to safely issue a bonded title without assuming liability for a potential ownership dispute. The bond ensures there are dedicated funds available to compensate any prior owners or lienholders who suffer a financial loss due to the new title issuance.
