      What advantages does BBVA Avalbox offer?

      • This service offers the following advantages
        • As there is no physical paperwork, there is no risk of an endorsement being lost
          or damaged.
        • You can monitor the procedure.
        • You can consult to all issued, canceled and executed guarantees.
        • Save time on processing guarantees.
        • You can manage your guarantees for companies directly.

      How can you file guarantees for businesses and public bodies?

      • There are three ways
        • Digital filing with a private company or a public body.

        The Royal Spanish Mint (FNMT) is responsible for reporting the issuance of guarantees and their safekeeping. It also offers a verification service.

        The public bodies included are the following regional governments: Murcia (CARM), the Board of Andalusia, the Board of Extremadura, Basque Government, Balearic Islands (CAIB), Government of La Rioja, Government of Navarre, Government of Cantabria, as well as local city halls and authorities.

        • Online presentation to a public authority. 

        We currently collaborate with the General Deposit Fund of the Public Treasury and the Galician Regional Government.

        • Submission at a branch. You must collect the guarantee at a BBVA branch.

      What type of business guarantee do you want?

      • You have two options
        • Technical guarantee: BBVA will be responsible for any obligations that are unfulfilled by the holder (the endorsed party) in the case of supply contracts (e.g., tenders, auctions, non-payment of rent, unpaid leasing fees, etc.). In this regard, you ensure that the service or work will be carried out in the requested manner.
        • Financial endorsements: BBVA guarantees fulfillment of your obligations in accordance with a monetary limit and/or established term. This type of bank endorsement is used, for example, in home rentals. In the case of companies, they simply guarantee that a payment will be made for something in the future.
          These subtypes include financial endorsements: they are financial guarantees. However, in this case, they refer to the corresponding payment obligations of a promissory note or treasury bill.
          • Commercial: the bank guarantees the payment obligation resulting from a business transaction between parties.
          • Non-commercial: credits or loans granted to a BBVA customer by other banks or credit institutions authorized by BBVA.

      International guarantees

      • Benefits
        In addition to the advantages of arranging your guarantees digitally with Avalbox, you will always have the equivalent value in euros of the amount of the guarantee in the foreign currency.
        File the guarantee with complete security
        • Direct: BBVA issues the guarantee. File it on paper or in a SWIFT message.
        • Counter-guarantee: a foreign bank issues the guarantee. File exclusively through SWIFT.

      What are the requirements?

      • Be registered with online business banking and have the Endorsements module enabled.

      Would you like more information?

      From a legal point of view, digital guarantees are equivalent to paper guarantees.

      For digital guarantees, the Royal Spanish Mint (FNMT) acts as a Trusted Third Party: It communicates and looks after the guarantee, stores evidence, and offers an authentication service. The FNMT has no involvement in online presentations.

      Online presentations are restricted to specific Public Administrations (currently the General Deposit Fund of the Public Treasury and General Deposit Fund of Galicia).

      Currently, only national guarantees can be requested. The lines for requesting guarantees and the amount of the guarantees must be in euros.

      Having a Trusted Third Party (FNMT) provides the following services:

      • Notification and presentation of the guarantee to the beneficiary and the guaranteed party.
      • Safekeeping of guarantees and proof of guarantee issuance service.
      • Verification service.

      Payees have 30 days after receiving the email to download a digital copy (PDF) of the guarantee. To do this, you must enter the Secure Verification Code (CSV) on the verification page provided by the FNMT.

      The beneficiary must submit a document to the guarantor or the guaranteed party indicating that the guarantee has been released. Once BBVA is notified of this document, it will proceed to cancel the guarantee.

      Guarantor: a bank (in this case BBVA) that issues the guarantee and undertakes to make a payment if the payer does not fulfill its obligations.
      Guaranteed party: the customer that requests the guarantee.
      Payee: a third party to which the guarantee is issued. This can be a person or company.
