Ship Building & Refund Bonds

Give your clients the security they need with TMHCC’s shipbuilding and refund bonds.

If you are a shipbuilder or shipyard, managing large and costly construction projects, you will often be required to provide your clients with certain guarantees about performance and delivery.

A performance bond provides a guarantee of your performance, under the shipbuilding contract and guarantees, that you will deliver the vessel to your client per the terms of the contract. 

If there is a default on the delivery of the vessel, the bond will provide security for your client’s additional costs involved in completing the vessel, up to the maximum value of the bond.

Refund bonds are a vehicle used to reimburse your client for any advance payments made during the project, should you default on your obligation to deliver the vessel. Refund bonds may be issued each time the ship owner makes an advance payment to you throughout the project and prior to delivery of the ship (or other vessel).
