The owner of a TreasuryDirect ® primary account may convert a definitive savings bond.

(1) The owner of a definitive savings bond registered in the single owner or entity form of registration;
(2) Either co-owner of a bond registered in the coowner form of registration; and
(3) The owner of a bond registered in the owner with beneficiary form of registration.
