The Unconditional Waiver And Release On Progress Payment is a critical document in Pakistani construction and development projects, used when partial payments are made during ongoing work. It provides legal certainty to project owners and upper-tier contractors by obtaining a clear waiver of rights and claims from parties receiving progress payments. This document is particularly important in Pakistan's construction industry where complex payment hierarchies exist and multiple parties may have claim rights. The waiver becomes effective immediately upon receipt of payment, unlike conditional waivers that require additional steps. It should be used whenever a progress payment is made and the paying party needs assurance that no claims will be made for work covered by that payment. The document must comply with Pakistani contract law and should be properly executed and stamped according to local requirements.
