What are Delivery Terms?

Delivery terms are specific provisions in a contract that outline the conditions of delivery for goods or services from a seller to a buyer. These terms define crucial aspects such as the time, location, method of delivery, and responsibility for shipping costs. Delivery terms also delineate the point at which the risk of loss or damage to goods transfers from the seller to the buyer. This is critical in commercial transactions to ensure clarity between the involved parties and minimize disputes.

When Should I Use Delivery Terms?

Delivery terms should be used whenever there is a transaction involving the transfer of goods or services between parties, particularly in purchase or sales contracts. They are essential in situations where:

  • The seller and buyer are in different geographical locations.
  • There is a need to clearly define transportation responsibilities.
  • The parties want to mitigate risks associated with transit.
  • The transaction involves international shipping, subject to different legal norms.

Using precise delivery terms is especially crucial in international trade to comply with diverse customs regulations and international commercial terms (Incoterms).

How Do I Write Delivery Terms?

Writing delivery terms involves specifying clear and detailed conditions about the delivery process. Here’s a general guide:

  1. Specify the Mode of Delivery: Determine whether the goods will be delivered by land, sea, air, or any combination thereof.

  2. Define the Delivery Point: Describe the location where the goods will be delivered. For international shipments, you might use standardized terms like FOB (Free on Board) or CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight).

  3. Outline Responsibility and Costs: Clearly state who is responsible for shipping costs, insurance, and other potential expenses like taxes and duties.

  4. Condition of Goods Upon Delivery: Specify how the goods should be packed and any quality standards they need to meet upon reaching the buyer.

  5. Risk Transfer Point: Indicate when the risk of loss or damage transfers to the buyer.

Here’s an example of delivery terms in a contract:

The seller agrees to deliver the goods FOB (Free on Board) at [Port Name], with all shipping costs and risk transferring to the buyer upon loading of goods onto the shipping vessel.

Which Contracts Typically Contain Delivery Terms?

Delivery terms are typically found in several types of contracts, including but not limited to:

  • Sales Contracts: These contracts for the sale of goods often include detailed delivery terms to ensure both parties are clear on their obligations.

  • Purchase Orders: These documents, used by buyers to formally request products, also specify delivery conditions.

  • Supply Agreements: Medium to long-term agreements specifying delivery schedules and conditions as part of the overall supply relationship.

  • International Trade Contracts: Contracts that require transport across national borders usually incorporate Incoterms to standardize delivery responsibilities and risk.

Including delivery terms in contracts such as these enhances communication and reduces the potential for disputes related to shipping and delivery.

Directly or indirectly

This clause typically indicates that the responsibilities, restrictions, or impacts of the contract apply both in a straightforward (direct) manner and in any more convoluted (indirect) ways. It is often used to ensure comprehensive coverage, preventing parties from bypassing obligations or restrictions through indirect actions.

15 example clauses

Disclaimer of damages

A Disclaimer of Damages clause limits or eliminates a party's liability for certain types of losses, such as consequential, incidental, or punitive damages, that may arise from a breach of contract or other incidents. This clause is designed to reduce potential financial exposure and can significantly impact the scope of recoverable damages in a legal dispute.

11 example clauses

Disclosure letter

A disclosure letter is a document provided during a transaction, typically accompanying a sale agreement, where the seller discloses specific information and any exceptions to the warranties stated in the contract. It serves to clarify details and protect the seller against potential future claims by informing the buyer of actual circumstances that might differ from contractual assumptions.
