Export Contract Templates

A clear export contract helps prevent misunderstandings, protects both parties, and provides a reference point if challenges arise.

Sub-topic

What it is:
An export contract is a legally binding agreement between a Dutch importer and an East African exporter—or vice versa—outlining obligations, delivery terms, pricing, documentation, and dispute resolution.


Why it matters (Netherlands ↔ East Africa):
Trade with East African countries often involves varying regulations, customs procedures, and quality standards. A clear export contract helps prevent misunderstandings, protects both parties, and provides a reference point if challenges arise.


Example topics inside the contract:

  • Parties involved

  • HS codes and product descriptions

  • Incoterms 2020 (FOB Mombasa, CIF Rotterdam, etc.)

  • Quality inspection(e.g., KEBS, TBS, UNBS)

  • Payment terms (LCs, DP, advance payments)

  • Dispute resolution (Arbitration / Dutch law / Local chambers)
