Default European Contract Bonds

Typically this is 20% of the total contract and would be required for about 1 year from award to arrival on site. Value of the bond would be about $2,000,000.00 which is 20% of the contract. Is that available in the USA?

Have absolutely no idea - as we do not do any kind of international bonding. I suggest you let your fingers do the walking on the World Wide Web to see if you can find a bonding company who does handle international.
Sorry.
