Contract surety in New Jersey. New Jersey public contracts require performance and payment bonds under the Bond Act (N.J.S.A. 2A:44-143 et seq.), with strong subcontractor payment protection.

Bid bonds in New Jersey. Bid bonds (commonly 10% of the bid, capped at $20,000) are standard on New Jersey public work, with NJDOT a major obligee and consent-of-surety required at bid. The successful bidder posts performance and payment bonds before award.

Subdivision & site improvements. Performance guarantees and maintenance guarantees for subdivision improvements are governed by the Municipal Land Use Law (MLUL), which caps and structures the security a municipality can require.

Contractor licensing. New Jersey registers home improvement contractors with the Division of Consumer Affairs; specific bonds apply to certain licensed activities.
