Document background
The Purchase Sale Agreement Form is a fundamental legal document used in German business and civil transactions to formalize the sale and purchase of goods, property, or assets. This template is designed to comply with German legal requirements, particularly the provisions of the German Civil Code (BGB) and Commercial Code (HGB). It is suitable for both business-to-business and business-to-consumer transactions, though specific provisions may vary depending on the nature of the parties involved. The document includes essential elements required under German law such as clear identification of parties, detailed description of the sale object, precise price and payment terms, delivery conditions, warranty provisions, and liability clauses. When used in international transactions, it may also address specific requirements related to cross-border trade and can include provisions regarding the application or exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
