What is a Simple Retention of Title in a Sales Contract?
A simple retention of title secures the seller of a movable item. Ownership only transfers to the buyer once the agreed purchase price has been paid in full. Until then, the seller remains the legal owner, even though the buyer already has possession of the goods.
Particularly in the crafts sector, construction material deliveries, or wholesale, this clause is essential to protect against the customer's insolvency risk. Please note that this template serves as a general drafting aid and does not replace professional legal advice.
