Letter Rejecting and Offering Conditions of Sale

Even if your terms and conditions of sale protect your position, they will not help if they do not apply to the transaction. In practice, the buyer may also try to impose its own standard terms, and only one set of terms can govern the contract.

Use this letter to reject the buyer’s terms and put your own terms in place

This supplier letter rejects the buyer’s terms and conditions and offers your own terms and conditions of sale instead. It is intended as the first step in a “battle of the forms” situation where both parties are seeking to contract on their own standard terms.

The letter requests confirmation that the buyer accepts your terms and confirms that the goods ordered will be set aside and ready for dispatch.

Related sale of goods terms you may want to attach or refer to

Use this letter alongside the most appropriate set of sale terms for the transaction, such as Sale of Goods Terms and Conditions (B2B), Sale of Goods for Resale Terms and Conditions (Retention of Title) (B2B) or Terms and Conditions of Export.

If the buyer continues to insist on its own terms, see Letter Rejecting and Reimposing Conditions of Sale.
