uusintatoimitus

Uusintatoimitus, which translates to "re-delivery" or "redelivery" in English, is a term primarily used in Finnish consumer law and commercial contexts. It refers to a seller's obligation to provide a new delivery of goods or services if the initial delivery was faulty or incomplete. This obligation arises when the delivered item does not conform to the agreed-upon specifications, is damaged, or is otherwise deficient.

The concept of uusintatoimitus is a consumer protection mechanism. It allows the buyer to seek a remedy for a defective product without necessarily having to cancel the entire purchase or pursue other, potentially more complex, legal actions. The seller is given the opportunity to rectify the issue by providing a correct and satisfactory delivery.

Typically, the buyer must inform the seller of the defect within a reasonable time after discovering it. The seller then has a specified period, often outlined in contract terms or consumer protection laws, to perform the uusintatoimitus. If the seller fails to provide a satisfactory re-delivery, the buyer may then be entitled to pursue other remedies, such as a price reduction, cancellation of the contract, or compensation for damages. The specifics of uusintatoimitus, including timelines and the scope of the seller's obligation, can vary based on Finnish legislation and the particular terms of sale agreed upon by the parties involved.
