The Rules are intended to apply worldwide to the use of demand guarantees, that is, guarantees, bonds and other payment undertakings under which the duty of the guarantor or issuer to make payment arises on the presentation of a written demand and any other documents specified in the guarantee and is not conditional on actual default by the principal in the underlying transaction. 《见索即付保函统一规则》(国际商会第458号出版物)是国际商会国际商业惯例委员会和银行技术与惯例委员会联合工作组以及为最后定稿而设立的起草小组的工作成果。本规则旨在于全球范围内适用于见索即付保函，也就是保函、保证或者其他付款承诺，在该承诺项下，当提交书面的付款要求以及保函所规定的其他单据后担保人或者出具人即有义务进行付款，而不以基础交易中被担保人是否实际违约为转移。 Demand guarantees differ from documentary credits in that they are properly invoked only if the principal has made default.

They have developed into all-purpose financial support instruments which are used in a much wider range of financial and commercial activity than demand guarantees, and regularly involve practices and procedures (e. g. confirmation, issue for a banks own account, presentation of documents to a party other than the issuer) that are in frequently encountered in relation to demand guarantees and that ally standby credits more closely with documentary cred
