Georgia Used Motor Vehicle Dealer Bonds are issued biennially, so Jet offers rates that are already set up for these bond terms. On September 30th of even-numbered years, the bond has to renew. If you are new you can opt to get the bond on a monthly basis until that date or get the bond at a prorated amount.

Why Is the Used Motor Vehicle Dealer Required?

Surety bonds are often required to provide a method of compensation when a dealer causes financial damage to a customer through fraud or misrepresentation. Not to say that all car dealers are untrustworthy, but there have been enough instances of dishonest behavior in the car sales industry that the State of Georgia had to establish some regulations to protect consumers. For what it's worth, all states have this surety requirement, not just Georgia.

The surety bond allows a third party to guarantee funds when the dealer refuses or cannot do so. The third party is the surety company (Jet) and the guarantee is the surety bond. You can review the legislative regulations surrounding the bond on the Georgia Secretary of State's website.
