Questions about international sale-purchase contracts

Transfer of title, risk and settlements in a contract of sale

It's an agreement between a seller and a buyer from different countries for the transfer of goods in exchange for payment. It is governed by the United Nations Convention (CISG). In Russia it serves as the mandatory basis for a currency payment at the bank and for customs clearance on import or export.
Three key differences: the parties are from different countries; settlements are made in foreign currency under bank control per 173-FZ; and the goods must undergo customs clearance when crossing the border. The document is drafted in two languages, EN/RU, and includes Incoterms conditions and an arbitration clause.
Yes, if both countries have ratified the Convention — CISG applies automatically unless the parties have excluded it. Russia, China, Germany, the United States, and Japan are all CISG members. The Convention governs the conclusion of the international sale-purchase contract, the obligations of the parties, the transfer of risk, and available remedies.
For the buyer (import): FOB — the supplier loads the goods onto the vessel, freight is paid by the buyer; CIF — the supplier also covers freight and insurance to the port. For the seller (export): FCA — handover to the carrier in Russia; DAP — delivery to the buyer's warehouse. The generator offers all 11 Incoterms 2020 conditions.
Under Bank of Russia Instruction No. 181-I, a contract is registered with an authorized bank if its amount is 3 million RUB or more on import or 10 million RUB or more on export (at the Central Bank rate on the date of signing). The bank assigns a UNK — a unique contract number. Below the threshold the contract is not registered.
Russian government authorities accept documents in Russian. The foreign counterparty works in English. The generator produces an international sale-purchase contract with parallel EN/RU columns — both texts are originals, with the Russian text prevailing in case of discrepancy (clause 9.1), so no notarized translation is needed.

International Sale-Purchase Contract: Legal Basis and Structure

It is governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and by the national currency legislation of the seller's or buyer's country. For Russian companies, the international sale-purchase contract serves as the basis for making a currency payment and for filing the customs declaration.

International Sale-Purchase Contract and the CISG

The CISG has been ratified by more than 90 countries, including Russia, China, Germany, the United States, and Japan. If both parties to the international sale-purchase contract are located in CISG member states, the Convention applies automatically. It governs how the agreement is concluded, the obligations of the seller and buyer, the moment of transfer of risk, and the remedies available in case of breach. The parties are free to exclude the CISG or modify specific provisions.

Incoterms in an International Sale-Purchase Contract

The Incoterms 2020 rules determine how costs and risks are divided between the seller and the buyer. FOB and CIF are for sea and inland waterway transport only. FCA and DAP are universal terms suited to any mode of transport. The basis changes who pays the carrier, not what the customs value consists of: under CIF freight and insurance are already in the price, under FOB they are added to the price up to the place of arrival in the EAEU customs territory.

Currency Control in International Sale-Purchase Transactions

The bank checks every international payment against Bank of Russia Instruction No. 181-I: the amount, currency, and purpose must exactly match the terms of the international sale-purchase contract. For amounts from 3 million RUB (import) or 10 million RUB (export), the bank assigns a unique registration number. The generator's template contains all the wording needed to pass currency control without delay.

Bilingual Format: EN/RU in One Document

Russian customs and banks accept documents in Russian. The foreign partner reads English. The builder produces a bilingual sale-purchase contract with parallel columns: English on the left, Russian on the right. Both texts are originals. Under clause 9.1 the Russian text prevails in case of discrepancy. No notarized translation is needed — this saves time and money on every deal.
