Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Payment terms are referred to in the conditions printed with all Purchase Orders and Outline Agreements known as the General Conditions of Purchase (GCP) which states “Payment shall be made within 60 days of the receipt of a properly compiled invoice unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Purchaser” Also referred to in Purchase Orders and Outline Agreements are the General Conditions of Contract (GCC), applicable to service contracts, which states “Basell will make a payment to the Contractor within 60 days of receipt of properly compiled invoice and following certification by Basell's Representative, such certification shall not unreasonably be withheld.” Below 60 days require special approval and is normally restricted to 30 days. On a few cases, the payment is due immediately.

Dispute Resolution Process

LyondellBasell's central Accounts Payable function is responsible for payment of invoices. All invoices are only processed for payment once there is clearance/approval in our internal systems based on delegation of authority. Common dispute items such as incorrect company name, error in amounts etc can be directly resolved by the Accounts Payable function. For others, the relevant department is involved to address the issues directly with the vendor. The latter are handled on case by case basis. The Purchase Orders are governed by English Law and the parties involved agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the English Courts.
