Written form, mandatory sections and the language of an international contract
Fill in the form with the parties' details and deal terms — get a personal bilingual document with all the mandatory sections for your bank and partner.
In international trade, the form of a contract is not mere paperwork — it is a legally significant element of the deal. A properly structured document determines whether it will pass currency control at the bank, whether customs will accept it, and whether it can protect the Russian party's interests if a dispute arises.
Article 161 of the Russian Civil Code requires simple written form for transactions between legal entities. Article 11 of the CISG allows a contract to be concluded in any form, but Russia made a reservation for the written form upon ratification. This means the contract must be signed by authorized representatives of both parties. No notarization, apostille, or state registration is required.
A bilingual international contract is a document with parallel columns: English on the left, Russian on the right. This lets the Russian party use the Russian-language version for the bank and customs, while the foreign partner works with the English version. Both texts carry equal legal force; in case of discrepancies, priority is determined by a clause in the contract itself.
An import contract of 3 million RUB or more, or an export contract of 10 million RUB or more, is registered with an authorized bank under Bank of Russia Instruction No. 181-I. Registration relies on details from the contract itself: the parties, subject, amount, currency, deadlines and payment terms. In the Контракт.Онлайн form each of them has its own section.
Choosing the governing law and the dispute-resolution venue is a critically important section of the international contract form. A sale of goods between parties from Contracting States is governed by the CISG; matters it does not settle fall under the law applicable by virtue of the rules of private international law. The arbitration clause determines whether a dispute will be heard by the ICAC at the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Moscow), the ICC (Paris), the LCIA (London), or SIAC (Singapore). The builder's contract names Russian law and the ICAC at the Russian CCI.
