The Performance Guarantee Bond is a crucial document in Saudi Arabian commercial and construction projects, typically required when a contractor or supplier enters into significant contracts, especially with government entities or large corporations. It serves as a financial security mechanism that protects the beneficiary against the principal's failure to perform their contractual obligations. The document must comply with Saudi law, including the Banking Control Law, SAMA regulations, and Sharia principles. The guarantee amount typically ranges from 5% to 10% of the contract value and remains valid throughout the contract period plus any warranty period. This type of bond is particularly important in government tenders under the Government Tenders and Procurement Law, and in private sector projects where substantial performance risks need to be mitigated.
