Oklahoma Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond
Overview
Oklahoma runs used vehicle dealer licensing through a dedicated commission, and the bond is filed on the commission's own form with the amount printed in its text. The Oklahoma Used Motor Vehicle, Dismantler and Manufactured Housing Commission's Used Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond, issued under the used dealer licensing law at 47 O.S. section 583, binds the dealer and surety in the penal sum of $25,000 in favor of the State of Oklahoma. The commission requires the executed bond before the used dealer license is issued.
Who Needs This Bond?
Applicants for an Oklahoma used motor vehicle dealer license through the Used Motor Vehicle, Dismantler and Manufactured Housing Commission file this bond — independent used car lots, buy-here-pay-here dealers, and wholesale used vehicle dealers. The bond is executed with the dealer as principal on the commission's prescribed form, and it accompanies both original applications and continued licensure under 47 O.S. section 583.
What is this Bond For?
The bond gives Oklahoma used vehicle buyers and the state a financial remedy when a licensed dealer's unlawful conduct causes a loss — failures like not delivering good title or violating the used dealer licensing law. A harmed party can recover against the bond up to its $25,000 penal sum, and the dealer must reimburse the surety for any valid claim paid, keeping the financial accountability on the dealership rather than the public.
When is it Required?
The executed bond must be on file with the commission before your used dealer license is issued, and coverage must remain continuous while you hold the license — the bond is a standing condition of licensure, not a one-time filing. Have the commission's bond form executed by your surety as part of assembling your application package so licensing review isn't delayed.
Where Does it Apply?
This is a statewide Oklahoma requirement administered by the Used Motor Vehicle, Dismantler and Manufactured Housing Commission, the state body that licenses used vehicle dealers. It applies to licensed used dealer locations in every Oklahoma county, because the requirement comes from the state's used dealer licensing statute and the commission's rules rather than any local ordinance.
