FOREIGN TRADE CONTRACT OF SALE IN INTERNATIONAL PRIVATE LAW

Introduction: the article considers ways to perfect sections of the foreign trade agreement which plays the leading role in international business (commercial) traffic pursuant to international trade law. Taking into account the national law the authors pay special attention to key claims which the buyer can make to the seller if goods are not fit for sale. Materials and Methods: the authors used the traditional dialectic method of scientific knowledge, system approach to studying legal concepts, and other general scientific and specialist methods applied in law (historical, statistical, comparative and legal, system and structural, analysis and synthesis, comparative analysis, SWOT analysis, interviewing, etc.). The critical analysis of legal literature on topical issues concerning the sequence of creation of the foreign trade agreement is carried out. The authors research in detail these questions, finding some gaps and shortcomings. Results: the study concludes that the state of the legal regulation of the emerging relationships based on it does not meet the modern requirements. Problems and difficulties in their regulation find their origin in a lack of common approaches to a number of important issues for the development of trade relations. The obstaclesthat prevent realization of advantages that objectively exist, for example, in the framework of the Customs Union, are the lack of a regional unified legal act, which would take into account the specifics of the relations between economic entities of the Customs Union and create a single legal framework for the formation and development. In the «Force majeure” section , the authors find some gaps related to emergencies. Such factors as counter-terror operations and hybrid war are analyzed. The authors provide practical advice on how to avoid mistakes when drawing up the contract. In order to address the problems identified, the authors offer a list of sections of a foreign trade agreement.Discussion and Conclusion: from the point of view of the authors of this article, the foreign trade agreement (contract) is a type of economic transaction, i.e. the agreement between economic agents, one of which is a non-resident of the Russian Federation or, being its resident, owns a commercial business abroad aimed at establishing, changing or terminating civil rights and duties in the implementation of the trade (export, import and re-export) operations. The findings will contribute to the resolution of civil disputes arising in commercial traffic and can be used for subsequent research offundamental scientific and applied issues of civil legal regulation of commercial traffic, as well as for creating textbooks and training materials for civil, commercial and private international law academic courses.
