A person or business operating in California who has a legitimate need to obtain DMV information must apply for a Commercial Requestor Account (CRA) with the California Department of Motor Vehicles. Once the CRA is approved, a $50,000 surety bond is also required if you are authorized to receive residence address information. Surety Bonds Direct (doing business as SB1 Direct Insurance Services, LLC in California) is a fully licensed provider of this surety bond.
