Document background
The Cancellation Letter For Purchase Order is a crucial business document used when a company needs to formally terminate a purchase commitment under Swiss law. This document is typically employed when circumstances necessitate the cancellation of an existing purchase order, whether due to changed business requirements, supplier issues, force majeure, or other valid reasons. The letter must comply with Swiss legal requirements, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR/CO), and should clearly identify the purchase order being cancelled, state the reason for cancellation, specify the effective date, and address any relevant consequences such as partial deliveries or payment adjustments. It serves as an official record of the cancellation and helps maintain clear communication between parties while protecting legal interests.
