How much bail is for a DWI in Texas depends on the case. Texas has not legislated a specific bail schedule based on charges, but it considers your unique circumstances to set bail, which could range anywhere from $1 to $10,000 or more.

Standard DWI Penalties (Misdemeanor) A fine of up to $2,000. Jail time of 3 to 180 days. License suspension of up to 1 year.

1st DWI offense fine: $250 to $2,000. Bail: up to $1,000. Court costs: up to $500. Attorney fees: varies, but average is up to $9,400.

Jail time is not mandatory for a first-offense DWI in Texas even though it is contemplated in the range of punishment. This means certain first-time DWI cases can result in jail, particularly high BAC (blood alcohol content) and vehicle collision cases.
