Texas Title Bond Calculator

Instantly calculate the bond amount and price for a Texas Certificate of Title (bonded title) bond. Enter your VIN, confirm your vehicle value, and get your bond same-day. Required by TxDMV when you have a vehicle without a clear title.

How the Calculator Works

  1. Enter your 17-character VIN to decode your vehicle automatically
  2. Enter the vehicle appraised value -- the bond amount will be 1.5x this value
