About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Georgia licenses driver training schools through the Department of Driver Services under O.C.G.A. § 43-13-1 et seq. A school must file a continuous $10,000 surety bond for each location as a condition of licensure, naming DDS as the obligee.

The bond exists for the protection of the contractual rights of students. If a school takes a student’s money and fails to deliver the contracted instruction — or closes mid-course — the harmed student can recover against the bond. By statute, the surety’s aggregate liability never exceeds $10,000 per location.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a student claim, you repay the surety. Each location you operate needs its own bond, written by a company authorized to do business in Georgia.

O.C.G.A. § 43-13-1 et seq.Georgia driver training schools are licensed by the Department of Driver Services under O.C.G.A. Title 43, Chapter 13. The school must furnish a continuous surety bond in the principal sum of $10,000 for each location, for the protection of the contractual rights of students, with the surety’s aggregate liability for all breaches not exceeding $10,000 per location. Confirm the per-location requirement on your DDS application.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Georgia driver training school bond?The premium is $100 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, the same for every school. The $10,000 is set by statute per location, so there is no quote process.
Do I need a bond for each location?Yes. O.C.G.A. § 43-13 requires a $10,000 bond for each school location, with aggregate liability capped at $10,000 per location. Two schools means two bonds.
What does the bond protect?The contractual rights of students. If a school fails to deliver the instruction students paid for, or closes mid-course, harmed students can recover against the bond up to $10,000.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information — there's no credit section on this bond. Most applications approve instantly; if a check ever runs, it's a soft pull that never touches your score.
When does it renew?The bond must stay continuous while your school is licensed. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out with autopay available so your license never lapses over a missed bond.
