Sale of Goods Agreement

This document sets out the basic terms that should be included in an agreement to sell goods such as the description of the goods, purchase price, order methods and transfer of title in the goods. It is a legally binding contract that protects the interests of both the Seller and the Buyer throughout the terms of the transaction.

Important considerations

While the Sale of Goods Agreement provides a good framework as a simple contract, each agreement must be customised to reflect the requirements of the relevant seller and buyer. For example, matters such as the manner in which goods are ordered and delivered may vary depending on the internal policies and procedures of the Seller. Additionally, it should conform to the applicable legislation in each state and territory   that govern the transactions involving sale of goods.
