Repair Warranty

Repair Warranty is a common after-sales clause term in foreign trade contracts, referring to the seller's commitment to provide free repair or replacement of parts for product failures not caused by the buyer within a specific period after delivery. It is often used in export contracts for machinery, electronic products, and durable consumer goods, and usually appears alongside or combined with 'Quality Warranty'. Notes: 1. The warranty period (e.g., 12 months from B/L date), warranty scope (whether labor, parts, and freight are included), and exclusions (human damage, improper use, force majeure) must be clearly specified; 2. It should be distinguished from 'Warranty Period' (a time concept) and 'Warranty Service' (a service action); 3. Unlike 'Guarantee', which often refers to an absolute commitment to product performance, Repair Warranty focuses more on the repair obligation. In practice, it is advisable to stipulate warranty response time, repair method (on-site/return to factory), and cost bearing in the contract to avoid disputes.
