Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Shin-Etsu Handotai Europe Limited (SEHE) is the main trading entity of Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd in the UK. SEHE will pay for third party goods/services within 7, 14, 30, 60 or 90 days, depending on the Supplier contractual terms, of a correct, undisputed and properly due VAT invoice, unless otherwise agreed in writing by a duly authorised representative. Invoices must generally state: the relevant purchase order number; the contact details of the SEHE point of contact; the period to which the invoice relates; the Supplier's bank account for payment; all charges and applicable taxes, and a description of the goods/services purchased/supplied. SEHE may set off amounts owing to it by the Supplier, and if SEHE has a bona fide dispute relating to all or some of the Supplier's invoices, SEHE may withhold payment of the amount, subject to resolution of the dispute.

Dispute Resolution Process

With respect to contracts with Suppliers, the general position is that the relevant manager authorises the payment for goods/services received. On receipt of the authorised invoice, and successfully matching to the goods/services receipts, the Accounts Department pays the Supplier. When an invoice is in dispute, it will be placed on hold until resolution with the Supplier before payment is made. The Accounts Department seek to deal with any disputes promptly (involving any other relevant parties as required) in accordance with the terms of the contract.
