Iowa commercial driver companies who offer 3rd party testing in the state are defined by Iowa statute §383.5. As a condition of being licensed as a commercial third party tester, you must provide evidence of financial responsibility.
Evidence of financial responsibility is satisfied by the purchase of a $50,000 commercial 3rd party tester surety bond.
Meeting this requirement will be the easiest part of your licensing process.
You are automatically approved for the $50,000 Iowa commercial driver license third party tester bond. This is because after a short surety bond application – which we’ll take from you over the phone --- and payment of the premium, $500, we issue the bond to you immediately.
