FAQs

What is an Advance Payment Bond?

An Advance Payment Bond is a guarantee, provided by a surety, that reimburses your Employer if an advance payment they have made cannot be recovered — for example if you are unable to deliver the contract or repay the advance.

When is an Advance Payment Bond required?

When you ask for payment in advance under a contract, often to fund the pre-ordering of materials or goods with long lead times. The Employer takes the bond as security for that advance.

What value is the bond issued for?

Normally an amount equal to the advance payment. Many are issued on a reducing basis, so the bonded amount falls as the advance is recovered through the works.

How long does the bond last?

Until the advance payment has been fully recovered or repaid — typically as the works progress and the advance is offset against valuations.

How much does an Advance Payment Bond cost?

Cost depends on the bond value, the length of the contract and the financial strength of your business.

What information do I need to provide?

Typically your latest accounts, the contract details and advance payment amount, and the bond wording requested by your Employer.

How quickly can it be arranged?

In most cases we can provide an indication quickly, with the bond issued in a matter of days once the supporting information is in place.
