The surety is released as soon as the principal obligation is extinguished for whatever reason. Where the same person is both principal debtor and surety, the creditor retains the special privileges conferred by the contract of surety. Any surety given by a natural person is extinguished once twenty years have elapsed from the date on which the contract was entered into. This does not apply to contracts of surety in favour of the Confederation or its public institutions or in favour of a canton for the performance of public law obligations such as customs duties, taxes and the like, and for freight charges, or to contracts of surety for the performance of official and civil service obligations and for periodic, recurrent obligations. During the final year of this period, the creditor may resort to the surety even where a longer duration was agreed for the contract of surety, unless the surety has previously extended the contract or replaced it with a new one. The contract of surety may be extended by means of a written declaration by the surety for an additional period of no more than ten years. However, the written declaration is valid only if done no earlier than one year before the contract expires. Where the principal obligation becomes payable less than two years before the contract of surety expires and the creditor was unable to give notice to terminate it sooner, under a contract of surety of any type the creditor is entitled to resort to the surety without prior recourse to the principal debtor or the pledges. However, the surety has a right of recourse against the principal debtor even before the principal obligation becomes payable.

Il garant vegn deliberà tras mintga extincziun dal debit principal. Sche la responsabladad sco debitur principal e sche la responsabladad da la garanzia s’uneschan dentant en la medema persuna, mantegna il creditur ils avantatgs spezials che resultan per el tras la garanzia. Mintga garanzia d’ina persuna natirala extingua 20 onns suenter ch’ella è vegnida surpigliada. Exceptadas èn garanzias ch’èn vegnidas surpigliadas vers la Confederaziun u vers ses instituts da dretg public u vers in chantun per obligaziuns da dretg public sco dazis, sco taglias e sco chaussas sumegliantas, u per taxas da vitgira sco er las garanzias per uffizis publics e per servetschs publics ed er las garanzias per prestaziuns che sa repetan periodicamain. Durant l’ultim onn da quest termin po la garanzia vegnir fatga valair, er sch’ella è vegnida surpigliada per in temp pli lung, sch’il garant na l’ha betg prolungada u remplazzada ordavant tras ina nova garanzia. Ina prolungaziun po vegnir fatga tras ina decleraziun en scrit dal garant per maximalmain 10 ulteriurs onns. Quella è dentant mo valaivla, sch’ella na vegn betg fatga pli baud che 1 onn avant che la garanzia extingua. Sch’il debit principal sto vegnir pajà main che 2 onns avant l’extincziun da la garanzia e sch’il creditur na l’ha betg pudì disdir avant quest termin, sto il garant star bun per mintga spezia da garanzia e senza ch’il debitur principal u senza che ses pegns vegnian obligads precedentamain a prestaziuns. Il garant ha dentant il dretg da prender regress sin il debitur principal, e quai gia avant ch’il debit principal sto vegnir pajà.
