Warranty Card

A Warranty Card is a written document provided with products in international trade to specify the warranty period, warranty coverage, warranty conditions, and disclaimer clauses to the buyer. It is usually issued by the manufacturer or exporter and serves as proof for after-sales service. Usage scenarios include: consumer electronics, machinery, parts, and other goods requiring after-sales guarantees. Notes: 1) The content of the warranty card must comply with the laws of the importing country, e.g., the EU requires a minimum 2-year warranty; 2) The warranty start date should be clearly stated (usually the shipment date or arrival date); 3) It should specify that the warranty does not cover human damage, improper use, etc.; 4) Distinguish from 'Quality Guarantee Certificate': the warranty card focuses on after-sales repair/replacement commitments, while the quality guarantee certificate emphasizes that the product meets agreed standards; 5) Different from 'Inspection Certificate', which is issued by a third party to certify the condition of goods. Foreign trade practitioners should ensure the warranty card is consistent with contract terms to avoid disputes arising from unclear warranty responsibilities.
