Frequently Asked Questions

Are sales contracts enforceable in China?

The enforceability of a contract generally depends on the validity of the contract. A valid contract is one that includes the key elements of an effective contract based on the applicable law.

Sales contracts drafted by lawyers on Trustiics platform take into consideration the different legal regimes in international trade and incorporate key elements of a valid contract. Therefore, they are valid and enforceable against the parties. If there is a breach of contract, the conforming party could claim compensation or enforce the contractual obligations under the contract. We recommend you contact the lawyer directly for further consultation if you have any questions about the contract he/she provided.

Why do I need a lawyer to draft the International Sale of Goods Contract instead of using a template?

A well-drafted Contract of International Sale of Goods should be based on the applicable law to be valid and enforceable against the counterparty. It will help protect your rights and assure due performance of the contract consistent with the market practice and legal requirements. A lawyer is able to customize the contract to make it suitable for your specific situation, taking into consideration the relationship between the parties, your goal and interests.

Can I just have my U.S. Sales of Goods Contract translated into Chinese?

You may be able to use a translated version of your U.S. sales document if it has the key elements of a valid contract. However, if the contract is based on the law of a foreign country, the Chinese party typically needs to review its full contents before signing. It is recommended to have a Chinese lawyer review or translate your contract to ensure two things:
  1. it does not have anything that is invalid or unenforceable in China;
  2. the accuracy of the translation.

If I’m buying from China, can I use this contract drafting service?

Yes. The lawyer will tailor-make a contract for your business – whether you are a buyer or a seller – taking into consideration your circumstances to protect your interest. This protects you much better than online templates or someone else’s contract.
