The MOU for Supply of Goods is commonly used in the United Arab Emirates as a preliminary step before entering into a formal supply agreement. This document type is particularly relevant when parties wish to document their preliminary understanding and commercial intent while maintaining flexibility for detailed negotiations. It typically includes proposed commercial terms, delivery frameworks, and quality expectations, while clearly stating its non-binding nature except for specific provisions like confidentiality. The document must comply with UAE Federal Laws, including the Civil Code (Federal Law No. 5 of 1985) and Commercial Transactions Law (Federal Law No. 18 of 1993). It serves as a roadmap for negotiating definitive agreements and is especially useful in complex supply arrangements where parties need to align their expectations before committing to binding obligations.
