Abstract

Due to the ease of global communication, it has become possible for anyone to obtain goods from any country. However, if the buyer is a consumer, they may not have the ability to ensure that the purchased goods comply with the required specifications or standards set by their country. Therefore, most legislations require sellers to provide consumers with goods that conform to the agreed-upon contract specifications and meet at least the minimum standards set by each country for goods entering its borders. Consequently, sellers or suppliers are not obligated to provide consumers with goods that only meet the specifications stipulated in the contract. If the consumer finds the goods non-compliant, they have the right to apply penalties specified by consumer protection laws or general principles of civil law. These penalties may include demanding repair, replacement, refund, or retaining the goods with a price reduction. Moreover, contractual breaches may lead to penalties such as termination, specific performance, or compensation.
