About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the schedule bond actually covers

The mileage weight tax under Section 3-818 of the Illinois Vehicle Code lets second-division vehicle owners pay tax by miles run in Illinois rather than a flat weight tax. For a single vehicle that comes with a $500 per-vehicle bond — but operators running several mileage-plate vehicles can use a schedule instead.

The schedule bond is one surety bond covering the vehicles on your mileage-tax schedule, sized by the Secretary of State to the fleet rather than billed $500 at a time. It backs the same thing: the mileage tax owed if a vehicle runs beyond its guaranteed mileage without the additional tax being paid.

Like the per-vehicle bond, it runs to the state, and if the surety pays a claim you repay the surety. Enter the scheduled amount the Secretary of State set, and see your exact price — premiums start from $100, and the application collects no credit information. Confirm the figure on your schedule before filing.

625 ILCS 5/3-818 (Illinois Vehicle Code)Section 3-818 of the Illinois Vehicle Code governs the mileage weight tax election for second-division vehicles. A schedule (fleet) bond covers multiple mileage-plate vehicles on one bond in an amount the Secretary of State sets from the schedule, in place of the $500 per-vehicle bond. Confirm the scheduled amount on your Secretary of State paperwork.

FAQ

Common questions.

How is the schedule bond different from the $500 mileage tax bond?The $500 bond covers one vehicle. The schedule bond covers multiple mileage-plate vehicles on a single bond, sized by the Secretary of State to your fleet schedule. If you run several vehicles, the schedule is usually simpler than bonding each one.
How much is it?This bond prices at 2% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum. Enter the figure the Secretary of State set on your schedule and see your exact price at the application.
Is there a credit check?Pricing is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — set by the amount, not a credit tier. A quick soft credit check may apply as part of underwriting; it is never a hard inquiry and never affects your score.
What does the bond guarantee?The mileage tax owed on the scheduled vehicles. If a vehicle runs beyond its guaranteed mileage and the additional tax is not paid, the state can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
What amount should I enter?Use the scheduled amount on your Secretary of State paperwork. If you are not sure, send us the schedule and we will confirm the figure before issuing.
