The SBA Surety Bond Guarantee Program may provide an additional path for eligible small businesses seeking surety bonds. It does not remove underwriting and it does not guarantee approval.
Contractors exploring this path should be prepared to discuss the company, ownership, work history, current work, the specific project and the requested bond. Additional financial or supporting documents may be requested depending on the situation.
TBG can help contractors understand the process and identify the next step when an SBA-supported approach may be relevant.
This resource is general information. Bond requirements and underwriting decisions depend on the specific request and surety review.
