About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Colorado conditions the right to repossess collateral on a $50,000 surety bond filed with the Attorney General. The bond is a property-protection guarantee: it stands behind the way you take possession of vehicles and other secured property — that you do it lawfully and without damaging property or breaching the peace.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the State of Colorado together with people harmed during a repossession (the protected parties). If a repossessor damages property or violates the rules governing repossession, a harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Repossessors who follow the self-help repossession rules and document their work treat the bond as a filing formality, not a risk.

C.R.S. 4-9-629Colorado's Uniform Commercial Code provision at C.R.S. 4-9-629 conditions self-help repossession of collateral on a $50,000 surety bond drawn in favor of the Colorado Attorney General, on a form the Attorney General approves. We issue the $50,000 amount the statute names — confirm the current form and filing details with the Department of Law before you file.

FAQ

Common questions.

Do I pay the $50,000?No. You pay $500 — the flat price our carrier sets for this bond. The $50,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the state and harmed parties; it's not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond?The State of Colorado, through C.R.S. 4-9-629, conditions self-help repossession on a $50,000 bond filed with the Attorney General. The bond is drawn in favor of the Attorney General and must be on the form the office approves.
What does the bond guarantee?That you repossess collateral lawfully — without breaching the peace or damaging property. If you cause harm during a repossession, the harmed party can claim against the bond, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check?A quick soft credit check may apply as part of underwriting — never a hard inquiry, no impact on your score. It informs approval, not price: the $500 rate holds regardless of what the check shows.
When does it renew?Terms run 1, 2, or 3 years — your choice at purchase. You'll get renewal notices 60 and 30 days before expiration, with autopay available, and the bond must stay active for you to keep repossessing in Colorado.
