Request to Alter Contract

A Request to Alter Contract is a document that allows one party to a contract to request for a change or amendment to the contract. It may be used for any type of contract that the parties may have entered into. A Request to Alter Contract is not an amendment to the contract rather, it's a proposal that one party makes to the other party which the latter may accept, reject, or negotiate with.

A Request to Alter Contract is a relatively simple document that should identify the contract and the section or provision that is being requested to be changed and specify the requested change or alteration. The person requesting the change can also include the contents of the section that is being requested to be changed to guide the reader. If the other party accepts the change, the parties can draft an amendment document, sign the amendment, and incorporate it to the original contract as an addendum.

How to use this document

This document can be used in any situation where a party to a contract would like to request an alteration of the contract from the other party who has signed it.

The person requesting a change or alteration (the "sender") can complete the document by entering the information asked for in the document. Once completed, the sender should print and sign the document and send the same to the other party. The sender should also keep a copy of the document for their records.

Applicable law

There are no specific laws that govern what should be included in a Request to Alter Contract. However, the laws on contract, found in the Civil Code of the Philippines, may apply.
