What is a Hold Harmless Letter?

A Hold Harmless Letter is commonly used in Singapore when one party wishes to protect another from potential liability arising from specific activities or situations. The document is particularly relevant in business relationships where risk transfer is necessary, such as in construction projects, event management, or property usage. Under Singapore law, these agreements must be carefully drafted to ensure enforceability while complying with local regulations regarding liability limitations. The document typically includes detailed descriptions of covered activities, scope of protection, and duration of the agreement.

What sections should be included in a Hold Harmless Letter?

1. Identification of Parties: Full legal names and addresses of both the indemnifier and indemnitee

2. Activity or Situation: Clear description of the activity, event, or situation covered by the hold harmless agreement

3. Scope of Protection: Specific details of what risks and liabilities are being protected against

4. Duration: Time period for which the hold harmless protection applies

5. Signature Block: Space for dated signatures of all parties

What sections are optional to include in a Hold Harmless Letter?

1. Insurance Requirements: Details of required insurance coverage, when specific insurance requirements are part of the agreement

2. Witness Clause: Space for witness signatures and details, used when additional verification of signatures is desired

3. Consideration Statement: Statement of consideration exchanged, used when there is specific consideration beyond the mutual promises

What schedules should be included in a Hold Harmless Letter?

1. Description of Activities: Detailed description of covered activities or events

2. Insurance Certificates: Copies of relevant insurance policies or certificates

3. Risk Assessment: Documentation of identified risks and mitigation measures
