About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the fleet registration bond actually covers

North Dakota offers fleet registration to large vehicle owners as an administrative convenience — instead of registering each vehicle on its own staggered cycle, an owner of 100 or more vehicles can register them together as a fleet through the NDDOT Motor Vehicle Division.

Because fleet registration consolidates the registration and the fees the owner owes the state, the NDDOT requires a $10,000 corporate surety bond as a financial backstop for the registration fees and taxes tied to the fleet. The bond runs to the State of North Dakota.

The bond guarantees the fleet owner pays the registration fees and taxes due on the fleet. If the owner fails to pay, the state can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, the owner repays the surety. We issue the $10,000 standard amount (or a larger figure if the NDDOT requires one) with pricing from $100; the application collects no credit information.

NDDOT Motor Vehicle Registration Manual (fleet registration)Per the North Dakota Department of Transportation's Motor Vehicle Registration Manual, fleet registration is available to an owner of 100 or more vehicles (passenger, truck, and trailers), and the registrant must file with the Motor Vehicle Division a corporate surety bond in the amount of $10,000. Confirm the amount and eligibility with the NDDOT Motor Vehicle Division for your fleet.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the North Dakota fleet registration bond?Pricing is 2% of your bond amount, with a $100 minimum. The NDDOT standard amount for fleet-registered owners of 100+ vehicles is a $10,000 corporate surety bond. Enter your amount and your exact price appears at application.

Who can use fleet registration?Per the NDDOT Motor Vehicle Registration Manual, fleet registration is available to an owner of 100 or more vehicles — passenger, truck, and trailers. Below that threshold you register vehicles individually and this bond does not apply.

Is this the same as IRP / apportioned registration?No. This is North Dakota intrastate fleet registration through the Motor Vehicle Division. IRP apportioned registration for interstate carriers is a separate program run by NDDOT Motor Carrier Services. If you are not sure which you need, send us the requirement.

Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information; most applications approve instantly.

Where do I file it?With the NDDOT Motor Vehicle Division, alongside your fleet registration. We issue the executed bond ready to submit.

Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
