The contract of supply of goods is economicdocument, one of the varieties of sales contracts, similar to them on a standard form. According to this document, the supplier undertakes to transfer the goods in the specified time (ownership or economic management) to the buyer who must accept it, having paid the specified sum of money.
Today, this treaty is very widely used in theeconomic turnover. Often in it for greater convenience, the value of the goods is set in conventional units. Payment is necessarily made in rubles (according to the Civil Code).
The delivery contract differs from(the supplier can be either a commercial organization or an individual entrepreneur) and the fact that goods can be transferred for use in economic (entrepreneurial) activities.
The parties to this type of contract are called the supplier and the buyer. Suppliers can be IP and legal entities, buyers - ordinary citizens or business entities.
A typical supply contract mustconsist in a written (simple) form. Otherwise, no testimony can confirm the fact of the transaction in the event of disputes. Any additional agreements to the contract must also be executed in writing. The main document can be concretized with additional documents: payment and delivery schedules, specifications, etc.
Obligatory conditions, which must containthe contract of supply of products or goods, are as follows. First of all, this is the subject of the contract - the name of the product, its quantity and quality. This is necessary to exclude the possibility of substitution of goods. Terms of delivery - the indication of the period within which the supplier is obliged to transfer the goods to the buyer (one or several lots).
No less important are some other conditions.In order to avoid trouble in the contract, it is necessary to prescribe in addition to the timing the need for delivery only at a specified time, and not before it, so that the buyer was able to pay and accept the delivered products. By default, the delivery of goods must be carried out by the supplier and at his expense. In the contract it is necessary to indicate that the moment of transfer of ownership of the supplied goods corresponds to the moment of transfer of responsibility for it together with all risks to the buyer.
Be sure (to avoid inconvenience) you need tospecify the order of supply: shipping in the warehouse of the buyer, the supplier and some other place. It is necessary to stipulate the terms of transportation: the goods must be properly packed to ensure its complete safety.
To ensure its own safety, the contract for the supply of goods must include a clause in which cases of liability of the parties are prescribed.
If there are problems and dissatisfactions with the other party, they should be expressed in writing in the form of claims, in which it is necessary to describe the situation in detail.
If the customer violates the terms (tighteningpayment, non-collection of goods), the supplier has the right to refuse to perform the terms of the contract unilaterally. In turn, the buyer can terminate the contract if the supply of goods of inadequate quality was made and the defects were not eliminated in an acceptable period for him, there were repeated violations of the delivery terms.
The contract of supply of the goods is considered terminatedor changed from the moment when one party received notice of the refusal to fully or partially perform the contract, unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
If as a result of such termination of the contract one of the parties has incurred losses, it has the right to demand their reimbursement by the other party.
