After rendering a certain service, the contractor sometimes raises the question of how to confirm the work done. After all, some contracts require the presence of actual results. In this case, the parties can be advised to draw up an act on the provision of services. Everything will be clear and extremely clear.
Need and need
Recently, the service sector has become especially popular. There are many organizations and individuals who are ready to meet the needs of their customers in various fields. Services can be commercial and non-commercial, tangible and intangible. True, sometimes the consumer wants to be sure that he received the desired in full. Then there is a need for documentary evidence, the best option of which would be an act on the provision of services.
Some consider it mandatory to have such paper among the primary documents when concluding such an agreement. However, this is not quite true. None of the current Russian legislation contains requirements for the preparation of such acts. True, there is a mention in the Civil Code, but only about acts of work performed. And those relate only to construction contracts. But any service, unlike work, is an intangible category, and, in essence, there is nothing for the contractor to transfer to the customer. That's why there is a need to draw up an act on the provision of services as confirmation.
Health care
One of the activities where there may be a need to draw up such an act is medicine. People often turn to doctors for help. But here we must take into account that now there are a lot of clinics and other health care institutions that operate on a paid basis. Consequently, all ongoing activities and activities will have their monetary equivalent. According to generally accepted rules, a bilateral agreement is concluded between the customer (Consumer) and the contractor (Institution), which sets out all the circumstances of their future cooperation. Since the relations between the parties in this case relate to payment, one side needs to confirm the fact of making it, and the other to prove that the work has really been done. The patient, for his part, provides a cashier's check, and the medical institution draws up an act on the provision of services (acceptance, delivery or performance of work). It should clearly indicate the completed volume and note the total amount taken from a preliminary estimate.
Document form
If the parties nevertheless decided to conclude a contract for the provision of any services, then there will certainly come a time when it will be necessary to confirm the fact of its execution. It will be required to issue an act of service.
In this case, the form will have to be prepared independently, because a unified form of such a document does not exist. But this is nothing complicated, since it, in fact, is a normal act of work performed. It is compiled arbitrarily. The main thing is that the following main points are indicated there:
- The name of the document itself, as well as the date and place of its preparation.
- The act must refer to a specific contract, the evidence of the performance of which it is.
- The name of the work indicated in the subject of the contract should be displayed.
- The full cost of services under the contract. Moreover, two amounts must be present: with and without VAT.
- It is necessary to note the positions of the two parties on this fact, namely, whether they have claims to each other.
- Details of both parties.In addition, for information, you can also mark the data of their authorized representatives.
- Signatures and stamps of the parties to the contract.
Sometimes such a document indicates the guarantees that one side gives the other regarding the work it has performed for a certain period of time.
In the field of transport services
One of the most demanded types of services are cargo transportation. After all, not every company manager or other owner can have a sufficient fleet of cars. And sometimes specialized equipment is required, which is not cheap. In this case, you have to seek help from companies for which such work is the main professional activity. An agreement is concluded, and after its execution an act of rendering transport services is drawn up.
Sometimes the parties first stipulate the amount, terms and individual conditions. Then, on the basis of this, an act is drawn up and partial or full payment is made, and only after all the work itself is performed. The sequence of actions of the parties is chosen independently. In the case of prepayment, it must be indicated in the act so as not to confuse the financial statements. The act, like the contract, is certainly drawn up in 2 copies so that each party has its own original document.
