The Contract Rejection Letter serves as a crucial business document in Swiss commercial practice, used when an organization or individual needs to formally decline a contract offer or proposal. This document is essential in Swiss business operations where clear communication and legal certainty are paramount. It must comply with the Swiss Code of Obligations and maintain the principle of good faith (Treu und Glauben) in business dealings. The letter should be used when a definitive decision has been made to reject an offer, requiring clear identification of the original offer, explicit rejection statement, and professional explanation of the decision. The document helps maintain professional relationships while providing legal clarity and protecting both parties' interests under Swiss law.
