vastuvõtuakt

Vastuvõtuakt, meaning "reception act" or "acceptance certificate" in English, is a document used in Estonian legal and administrative contexts. It formally records the acceptance of something, typically goods, services, or a completed project, from one party to another.

The primary purpose of a vastuvõtuakt is to provide proof of delivery and acceptance. It serves as a crucial document in contractual relationships, particularly in construction, procurement, and service provision. When a contractor completes a job or delivers goods according to an agreement, a vastuvõtuakt is drawn up and signed by both parties. This signature signifies that the receiving party has inspected the delivered item or service and found it to be in accordance with the agreed-upon terms and conditions.

Key information typically included in a vastuvõtuakt comprises details of the parties involved, a description of the accepted item or service, the date of acceptance, and any specific conditions or remarks. If there are any defects or discrepancies, these are usually noted in the document. The signing of the vastuvõtuakt often marks the commencement of warranty periods or the finalization of payment obligations. It helps to prevent disputes by clearly documenting the state of acceptance at a particular point in time.
