For the purpose of these Terms and Conditions, 'the Buyer' refers specifically to the B2B clients of JSP Group INTL BV, including Distributors and Retailers, who purchase products for resale or business use. The use of 'the Seller' in these Terms and Conditions refers exclusively to JSP Group INTL BV.
1.
Applicability and Deviations
The conditions stated on invoices, order forms, quotations, websites, and other documents are an integral part of these documents and apply to all commitments, agreements and contracts entered, including those relating to repairs.
Deviating terms, clauses and provisions shall only apply if expressly agreed in writing in advance.
To bind the Seller, every order must be confirmed in our offices or placed via the B2B site. The following terms and conditions take precedence over those of the Buyers, both general and special.
2. Offers, Prices and Deadlines
The commitments made by the agents and/or representatives of the Seller are valid only after written confirmation. The applicable prices are those in force on the day of order registration. These prices may be changed without prior notice, subject to other agreements. In case of storage, backorders are invoiced at the prices at the time of the order. Backorders can only be cancelled after a period of six (6) months. Delivery times are indicative only. The Seller takes the necessary measures to meet delivery times but does not accept delay penalties. Delays in delivery cannot under any circumstances give rise to cancellation of the order. Partial deliveries are permitted. Even in the case of special and formal provisions regarding delivery deadlines, the Seller declines any responsibility:
• In cases of force majeure;
• If the performance of the contract is delayed due to a fact for which the Seller is not responsible;
• If the Buyer has not strictly observed the terms of payment.
Delivery takes place ex Seller's warehouse and is considered as acceptance. Return of the delivered goods can only take place with the explicit consent of the Seller. All goods intended to be returned or replaced must be accompanied by a note stating the invoice number and reason for return. Damaged or soiled goods will not be taken back. If the goods are taken back, they will be credited on the day of invoicing at ten percent (10%) of the net purchase price.
3. Shipment
and Transport
The goods are delivered according to the internationally recognized Incoterms ‘Ex Works - Ex Factory’, unless otherwise agreed and indicated on the invoice. This implies that all risks and costs arising from the transport shall be borne by the consignee (the Buyer). It does not matter whether the transport is conducted by the Seller or by designated carriers. If goods are lost in transit or shipment, even by accident or force majeure, the Buyer remains liable for payment of the goods purchased.
4. Product Safety and Responsibilities - General Product Safety Regulation (EU) 2023/988

5. Warranty
and Complaints
No guarantee is granted by the Seller other than the conformity of the goods with the quality and specifications mentioned in the order form and/or sales agreement and its confirmation.
Buyers who are not compliant with their payment obligations do not benefit from any warranty. The Buyer alone bears the risks arising from the use of the goods sold and assumes all responsibility for them. The Seller denies any warranty, express or implied, written, or unwritten, against infringement of any patent or patent relating to the goods supplied and their use. The Seller's warranty is limited to the replacement of defective parts, if recognized by our technical department and provided they have not been modified or dismantled by the customer. Complaints must be submitted in writing within five (5) days after receiving receipt of the goods. After this period, the delivery is deemed accepted.
Complaints for hidden defects can only be considered if they are communicated to the Seller by registered letter within thirty (30) days of receipt and/or commissioning of the goods. After this period, the Buyer can no longer claim the hidden defects, except with our express written consent.
The warranty period starts on the day of delivery and/or commissioning of the goods.
If the Seller acknowledges that the complaint is well-founded, the Seller is only obliged to replace or repair the delivered goods or the defective parts free of charge, without being liable for any compensation.
The Seller's liability shall in any case be limited to the sales price including the transport costs of these goods that do not meet the agreed qualities and specifications.
All complaints about missing goods in shipments must reach the Seller in writing within five (5) working days from the invoice date.
6. Payments
The first five (5) deliveries are shipped without discount, either against prepayment, or obtained against cash payment upon collection or delivery.
Subsequent deliveries take place under the following conditions:
• Either cash payment; within five (5) working days after invoice date with a two percent (2%) discount on the invoice value;
• Or payment within thirty (30) days after invoice date without any deduction.
Orders of less than four hundred euros (€ 400) must be paid cash on delivery without deduction. Goods delivered by the Seller may be reclaimed by the Seller at any time in settlement of outstanding invoices.
The receipt and/or signing of the invoice shall, in accordance with the Civil Code Article 5.231 of 13 April 2019, by operation of law imply a notice of default without any deed being required and only by expiry of deadline.
Unless otherwise provided, agents or representatives of the Seller may not collect the amount of the invoice.
The Buyer shall bear the foreign exchange risk.7. Non-Payment
and Compensation
In case of unpaid invoices or overdue payments, the Legislation regarding Unpaid B2B Invoices of 1 September 2023 shall apply, in accordance with Article 6 of the General Terms and Conditions of Sale.
In the event of non-payment by the agreed due date, we reserve the right to increase the invoice amount by applying a default interest rate of ten percent (10%) and a fixed compensation fee of forty euros (€ 40) for collection costs, with a minimum charge of one hundred euros (€ 100).
This clause does not prevent the debtor from requesting instalments and only applies as far as the amount of the invoice is not open to serious dispute.
Non-payment on the due date of a single invoice makes the balance due on all other invoices, even those not yet due, immediately payable by operation of law.
If the Buyer fails to honor his commitments, the sale may be cancelled ipso jure and without notice of default, without prejudice to our rights to all damages and interest. The expression of our will by registered letter is sufficient for this purpose.
If the Seller’s confidence in the Buyer's creditworthiness is impaired by judicial execution against the Buyer and/or demonstrable other events which call into question and/or render impossible our confidence in the proper fulfilment of the obligations entered into by the Buyer, the Seller reserves the right, even if the goods have already been dispatched in whole or in part, to suspend the order in whole or in part and to demand appropriate guarantees from the Buyer.
If the Buyer refuses to comply, the Seller reserve the right to cancel all or part of the order. All this is without prejudice to our rights to all damage and interest.
8. Transfer of Ownership and Retention of Title
The goods remain our property until full payment of the price has been made. The Buyer bears all risks. Advance payments made do remain our property to offset any losses on resale.
If the Buyer resells the goods from the Seller, even processed, he shall from now on assign to the Seller all claims arising from such resale.
In case of non-payment of any amount due, or bankruptcy of the Buyer, the Seller shall be entitled to rescind the contract or the undelivered part thereof without judicial intervention.
9. Applicable
law - Competent court
These B2B General Terms and Conditions of Sale are governed by Belgian law. In the event of a dispute, the courts of Antwerp, Turnhout Division, shall have exclusive jurisdiction.
The Seller reserves the right to bring action before other competent courts in the Buyer’s country. The aforementioned General Terms and Conditions of Sale cannot be revoked or annulled by conditions established later, as these shall only have a supplementary character.
