Custom choices

Which choices determine the content?

A few fundamental choices determine the extent of your statement and the risks you assume.

Choice or question Why this matters legally
What exactly do you guarantee? A result guarantee (it works) binds you more strongly than a best-effort guarantee (you do your best). Choose wisely.
How long is the warranty? A longer term offers the beneficiary more certainty but extends your obligation; align this with the lifespan of the product or performance.
What are the consequences of non-compliance? Do you limit yourself to repair or replacement, or are you also open to compensation? A liability ceiling can limit your risk.
Who can invoke the warranty? Does the warranty apply only to the direct counterparty, or also to subsequent owners or third parties?
Which exceptions do you include? Clear exclusions prevent you from also being liable for damage that is beyond your control.
Clauses and provisions

Which items belong in a warranty statement?

A comprehensive warranty statement specifies who guarantees what, under what conditions, and for how long. The components below form the core.

Provision Relevant to Legal point of attention
Parties Always Who provides the guarantee and to whom is it provided, with full business or personal data.
Subject of the warranty Always The product, service, result, or characteristic for which you are responsible, specifically described.
Warranty standard Always Which requirement exactly is guaranteed, for example, operation, quality, ownership, or a specific performance level.
Duration and start date Always From when and for what period the warranty applies, and when it expires.
Obligations in the event of default Always What to do if the warranty is invoked: repair, replacement, refund, or compensation.
Exclusions and limitations Often Situations in which the warranty does not apply, such as improper use, normal wear and tear, or modifications by third parties.
Notification and complaint period Often Within what period the beneficiary must report a defect to retain their entitlement.
Applicable law and disputes Recommended Which law applies and which court or authority has jurisdiction in a conflict.
Use in practice

How do you use this document correctly?

A warranty statement is only valid if the content matches the agreements and the execution. Pay attention to the following points.

Situation What should you do? Point of attention
When drafting Align the warranty with the underlying agreement and with what you can actually deliver. A guarantee that deviates from the main agreement leads to conflicting obligations.
Upon issuance Have the beneficiary receive or sign the declaration and keep a dated copy. This establishes what has been promised and from which date the term runs.
During the term Document reports, corrective actions, and correspondence regarding the warranty. In the event of a dispute, a conclusive file is decisive.
Upon invocation Assess whether the report falls within the time limit and under the warranty standard; respond in writing and in a timely manner. A delayed or unclear response can weaken your position.
Common mistakes

Common mistakes

These errors make a warranty statement weaker than intended or, conversely, riskier than necessary.

Wrong Consequence Better approach
Formulating too broadly You unintentionally take on more than you can deliver and commit yourself for the long term. Define scope, duration, and exclusions clearly.
Do not specify duration The warranty may prove to apply without limitation. Include a clear start date and end date.
No notification period Beneficiaries can still claim years later. Establish a reasonable period for complaints and notifications.
Warranty deviates from the agreement Conflicting obligations and discussion about what applies. Refer to and align with the main agreement.
Consequence in the absence not determined Uncertainty as to whether you must repair, replace, or reimburse. Describe specifically which remedy the beneficiary receives.
Risk profile

What is your situation and what do you pay attention to?

The exact implementation depends on your role and the type of performance you guarantee.

Risk profile Example Focus in the document
You supply a product You guarantee quality or functionality for a certain period after delivery. Exclude normal wear and tear and improper use, and determine whether to repair or replace.
You provide a service or result You are responsible for an agreed performance level or final result. Distinguish between best-efforts and results, and limit liability.
You guarantee a third party You assume an obligation of another person if they fail to fulfill it. Specify the amount, duration, and conditions under which you can be held liable.
You receive a guarantee A supplier or partner acts as your guarantor. Check the scope, duration, and how to invoke the warranty in practice.
Additional documents

When is this document not enough?

A warranty statement rarely stands alone. In these situations, you need additional or different documents.

Situation Supplementary document Why
You want to protect sensitive information Confidentiality Agreement A guarantee covers quality, not confidentiality; for that, you record agreements separately.
The guarantee is part of a broader collaboration Cooperation Agreement You regulate mutual rights and obligations in the main agreement of which the guarantee forms part.
The other party fails to comply with the warranty Debt collection If payment or compliance fails to materialize, collection or legal action is the next step.
Explanation of this document

Drafting a warranty statement, why?

Not every entrepreneur knows exactly what a guarantee statement is, when you need one, and which risks they must cover. That is why we explain below what this document entails, what you should look out for, and why customized legal advice is important.

What is a warranty statement?
A guarantee statement is the written promise by a party — the guarantor — that a specific fact or circumstance is true, that a product or service meets certain specifications, or that an obligation will be fulfilled. In business practice, guarantee statements are most commonly used in three contexts. In company acquisitions and share sales, the seller provides guarantees regarding the state of the company — its financial position, compliance with laws and regulations, and the validity of contracts. In bank guarantees and suretyship cases , a financial institution or surety undertakes to pay on first demand if the principal debtor defaults. And in product and work guarantees, the supplier guarantees the quality or performance of a product or work for a specified period. Our lawyers will draft a guarantee statement for you that accurately describes the guarantees, correctly formulates the exclusions and limitations, and keeps your liability in the event of a breach manageable.
How do guarantees work in a business acquisition?
In a business acquisition, warranties and indemnities the most extensive and most negotiated part of the acquisition agreement. The seller guarantees the buyer a wide range of facts regarding the company: the accuracy of financial information, the absence of unknown debts or liabilities, the validity of material contracts, compliance with tax and employment obligations, and the validity of permits. A breach of a warranty entitles the buyer to compensation for the difference between the actual value of the company and the value as guaranteed. Your warranty statement for a business acquisition must precisely describe the warranties, clearly set out the exclusions—the disclosures for which the buyer cannot make claims—and limit the liability limit and the statute of limitations for warranty claims. Our lawyers will draft a balanced warranty package for you that balances the interests of both buyer and seller.
What is the difference between a warranty and an indemnity?
This distinction is of great importance in the context of an acquisition. A guarantee is a promise that a specific fact is correct — if the fact is incorrect, the buyer is entitled to compensation. An indemnity is a promise that the seller will indemnify the buyer for specific, named risks — an ongoing tax procedure, known environmental pollution, a pension arrears — regardless of whether the guarantees have been breached. The indemnity gives the buyer a more direct claim without having to demonstrate the causal link. In practice, guarantees and indemnities are combined: guarantees for the general state of the company, and indemnities for the known and specifically described risks. Our lawyers structure the guarantee and indemnity package based on the results of the due diligence investigation.
How do you limit your liability as a guarantor?
Limitation of liability under warranties is an essential point of negotiation for sellers and guarantors. Standard limitations include: a minimum threshold for claims — the buyer can only bring claims if the total damages exceed a certain threshold amount; a maximum limit for total liability — typically a percentage of the purchase price; a limited claims period — warranty claims must be submitted within a certain period after the execution of the transaction. Your warranty statement must also include exclusions for known risks disclosed in the disclosures, for matters the buyer should have known through customary due diligence, and for damages resulting from actions of the buyer after the transaction. Our lawyers advise you on market-standard liability limitations for your specific transaction.
How does it work at MKBjuristen?
After a brief intake, our lawyers map out the type of guarantee, the context of the transaction, the extent of the risk, and your specific wishes. Based on this, we draft a guarantee statement that accurately describes the guarantees, correctly formulates the exclusions, and keeps your liability manageable. We also advise you on alignment with the due diligence report in the case of business acquisitions.
Are you unsure whether your document is legally correct? We would be happy to assess the sensible course of action: drafting, reviewing, or amending.

Why not use a standard document?

A standard document often seems like a quick solution, but usually does not fully align with your company, agreements, risks, and way of working. Our legal experts draft documents that fit your situation.

Standard document

Not tailored to your business
Tailored to your company, industry, and working methods
No control over your specific situation
Consultation with a lawyer and assessment of your risks
Possibly outdated or incomplete

Explanation regarding the use of the document

A standard document seems cheap, until it doesn't fit your situation properly. That is why we provide custom legal solutions tailored to your business.

Custom solutions per industry and company

Every business operates differently and faces different legal risks. Therefore, we tailor the document to your industry, customers, agreements, and way of working.

Webshops & e-commerce

Focus on online sales, delivery, returns, complaints, payment, digital products, and consumer regulations.

Business services

Attention to the assignment, additional work, liability, payment, termination, and reliance on client information.

Construction, installation & execution

Attention to planning, delivery, warranties, additional work, materials, delays, and liability risks.

Software, SaaS & digital services

Consultants, freelancers & advisors

Attention to scope, best efforts obligations, cancellation, payment, liability, and confidential information.


A legal document only has value if it suits your practice. That is why we look not only at the text, but also at how you use the document in your business.

Common mistakes with legal documents

A legal document often seems simple, but small errors can have major consequences later on. In practice, we see that entrepreneurs run the greatest risk when a document does not align well with their business, agreements, or way of working.

  • Using a standard document that does not suit the company
  • Forgot important agreements regarding payment, delivery, liability, or termination
  • Have a document generated without legal review
  • Continuing to use old documents while the company has changed
  • Not knowing how the document should be used correctly in practice

A legal document only prevents problems if it suits your situation. That is why we look not only at the text, but also at your company, agreements, and risks.

Why is a standard document often not enough?

Because a standard document does not take into account your industry, customers, risks, and specific agreements, important provisions may be missing or not align well with your practice.

Can I create a legal document myself using AI?

AI can assist in creating text, but does not independently assess whether the document is legally appropriate, complete, and usable for your business. Legal review therefore remains important.

When do I need to have my document checked?

Have your document checked if your business has changed, you have new customers or services, you have doubts about existing agreements, or the document has not been updated for a long time.

Will I also receive an explanation about the use of the document?

Yes. We explain how to use the document in practice, what to look out for, and which steps are important to prevent disputes afterwards.
