Nigeria, if a required act is not performed.

Insurer to the Customs & Excise board with respect to the
payment of duties on imported goods which enable the
customs to allow the clearance of the goods while the duty
will be paid on a later date. Regular importers who are not
able to pay for duties at once can be asked to obtain a
custom bond to allow their goods released while they will
make payment from sale of the imported goods.

Security Guarantee Bond

Security Guarantee bond is a pre-qualification guarantee
requirement by the Ministry from all applicants for the
Recruiters’ licence, guaranteeing that the applicant when
granted the licence will employ professionalism and
carefulness in their method of recruitment, will recruit and
train qualified workers that will be capable to fill the position
so advertised and will be able to provide the required
services to the company they are assigned to.
This bond is basically a formality requirement by the
Federal Ministry of Labour & Productivity from all
companies that apply for the issuance of Recruiter’s license
that will allow them supply human capital to their clients.

Where a company is involved in recruitment of staff as an
outsourced firm, they are required to obtain the Recruiter’s
license from the ministry, which in turn requires this bond
as comfort prior to issuing the license.
