Standard clauses in a commercial contract are provisions applicable to most contracts and are necessary to provide protection to the parties entering into a transaction. These provisions are also known as boilerplate or miscellaneous clauses.

This document provides sample boilerplate clauses for use in commercial contracts but may be modified or amended to address specific needs of the parties involved. The clauses are useful to someone reviewing a contract as they are indicative of matters that parties should address themselves as well as usual clauses that are standard across commercial contracts.
