GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE OF AMINOGRAM
ARTICLE 01 - ACCEPTANCE
Placing an order implies full and unconditional acceptance of these general terms and conditions of sale, excluding any other document such as brochures or catalogs, which are purely indicative.
No special condition may prevail over these general conditions without the formal and written agreement of Sas AMINOGRAM.
- For individual customers, the GTC must be provided before the conclusion of the contract.
- For professional customers, they are available upon request and must be accepted before any transaction.
Any contrary clause proposed by the buyer will be unenforceable against Sas AMINOGRAM unless expressly accepted. In the event of a contradiction between these general terms and specific conditions agreed between the parties, the specific conditions will prevail.

Prices are expressed in euros and include the applicable VAT in France for B2C and B2B sales unless otherwise stated. The agreed prices are ex-factory or store, excluding transport, assembly, and insurance costs. Prices are valid for a period of 30 days.
The sale price of a product may change at any time due to an unexpected increase in VAT or a rise of more than 10% in the cost of raw materials used in manufacturing. Any modification will be notified to the customer before order validation.
For customers located in the DOM-TOM, transport, assembly, and insurance costs are borne by the customer.
For customers within the European Union with an intra-community VAT number, this number must be provided at the time of purchase. If the customer does not provide it, an amended invoice cannot be issued later.
For customers outside the European Union, orders will be invoiced excluding taxes (HT). The customer is responsible for paying any applicable import taxes and customs duties in their country. They must also ensure that their country allows the importation of the products, particularly in the case of medical devices requiring prior registration.

No modification, total or partial cancellation of a confirmed order will be accepted without prior written agreement from AMINOGRAM.
