Summary

A Massachusetts car dealer bond is a type of surety bond that car dealers in the state are required to obtain in order to operate legally. Essentially, a car dealer bond is a contract between the dealer, the state of Massachusetts, and a third-party surety company. The bond ensures that the dealer will comply with all applicable state laws and regulations related to car sales and protect customers from any fraudulent or unethical practices.

If a dealer violates the terms of the bond by engaging in unlawful behavior, customers who have suffered losses can file a claim against the bond to seek compensation. The surety company that issued the bond will then investigate the claim and may pay out compensation to affected customers. However, the dealer will ultimately be responsible for repaying any amounts paid out by the surety company.

Massachusetts MVD Bond Information and Requirements:


Massachusetts Automobile Dealers use Dealer Reassignment of Title (DRT-1) for:

Reassignment of Title. - When all other reassignments on the Title have been completed, the selling Massachusetts dealer completes the front side.  Do not use the DRT-1 if:

  • There is an available assignment on the back of the Title.
  • There is an available reassignment on any attached Dealer Reassignment form.  This includes forms from another state.

Always use the first available reassignment.

Authorization for Loan Payoff. - Complete the back side as an assignment and authorization for payoff.  The vehicles owner(s) must sign, print name, date, and disclose the mileage on the form.  This authorizes the dealer to pay off the lien and get the title from the lienholder.  Provide the lien holder a copy of the form along with payment.  When you receive the title, attach the original DRT-1 to it.
