What is a Massachusetts Bonded Title?
Massachusetts Title Law, Chapter 90D, Section 12 requires individuals who own vehicles with missing titles to file a bond as part of the ownership registration process. By filing a Massachusetts certificate of title surety bond, an individual verifies they legally own their vehicle and that it was not acquired under fraudulent circumstances.
The bond protects previous owners, lien holders, and future vehicle owners in the event the original title is found. If a valid claim is filed on the bond, the surety company will pay the harmed party up to the full bond amount, which the bonded vehicle owner must reimburse.
