What are South Carolina Motor Vehicle Dealer Bonds?

Surety bonds are required in the state of South Carolina for all dealers of new and used motor vehicles, motorcycle dealers, and wholesale aution dealers. The South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles requires all dealers to be licensed and have established the following South Carolina Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond requirements:

  • $50,000 surety bond for Retail/Wholesale/Recreational Dealers
  • $25,000 surety bond for Motorcycle/Motorcycle Wholesale Dealers
  • $15,000 surety bond for Wholesale Auction Dealers

You must submit your original Surety Bond and Power of Attorney with your Application for a Dealer or Wholesaler License (SCDMV Form DLA-1) at the time of your application. The bond provides security or protection against loss or damage due to fraud or fraudulent representation in relation to a sale or transfer of a motor vehicle by a licensed dealer, wholesaler, or their employees.

Your bond must be in effect before the SCDMV will grant you a license. The owner, partner, or corporate officer of the dealership must sign the surety bond. A corporate surety company authorized to do business in SC must secure the bond. You must submit a new surety bond and Power of Attorney to the SCDMV if you change your bonding company. Dealers should always keep a copy of all documents submitted to the SCDMV.
