The Notice of Intent to Default is a crucial legal document used in Austrian business and financial transactions when one party needs to formally notify another about a potential or actual default under their contractual obligations. This document must comply with Austrian Civil Code (ABGB) requirements and typically precedes any formal enforcement action. It serves multiple purposes: documenting the default, providing a final opportunity for remedy, and establishing a legal basis for subsequent enforcement actions if necessary. The notice must include specific details about the default, reference the relevant agreement provisions, specify cure periods as required by Austrian law, and outline potential consequences. It's particularly important in commercial relationships as it often serves as evidence in any subsequent legal proceedings and demonstrates compliance with procedural requirements under Austrian law.
