Document background
The Service Acceptance Letter is a critical business document used in Malaysian commercial practice when a party wishes to formally accept services proposed by a service provider. This document is typically issued following the receipt and review of a service proposal or quotation, and before the commencement of services. It serves multiple purposes: documenting the formal acceptance of services, confirming key commercial terms, and establishing a clear starting point for the service relationship. The letter needs to comply with Malaysian contract law principles, particularly the Contracts Act 1950, and may need to consider electronic commerce regulations if executed digitally. It's commonly used in both private and public sectors, and while shorter than a full service agreement, it often carries similar legal weight in establishing the service relationship.
