There are occasions after a contract is entered into when the parties may agree that changes must be made to the original contract. Typically the original contract will contain a provision allowing amendment, variation or modification of the contract which must be followed in order for any changes to be valid. This Contract Variance sets out the terms of the variations or modifications in writing. Having a written agreement when amending a contract will prove valuable in the event of disagreements, misunderstandings or litigation.

Among others, this Contract Variance includes the following provisions:
  • Parties to the Agreement: This provision contains the identity and names of the parties entering into the variation agreement;
  • Variation: This provision specifically sets out variation provisions to the original contract;
  • Other Terms of the Contract: This provision sets out the terms of the original contract which will remain in full force and effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

A Contract Variance, also known as an amendment to a contract, is a legal document used to formally change the terms of an existing contract. It ensures that all parties agree to the new terms and provides a written record of these changes.

You should use a Contract Variance whenever you need to make changes to an existing contract, such as altering payment terms, modifying deliverables, or adjusting timelines. It's important to document these changes to avoid potential disputes.

No, a verbal agreement is not sufficient for contract changes. It is crucial to have a written Contract Variance to ensure that all parties are clear on the new terms and to provide legal protection in case of disputes.

This Contract Variance is designed for use in Australia and can be used for various types of contracts, including service agreements, leases, and business contracts. However, it's important to ensure that the original contract allows for amendments.

If you don't use a Contract Variance to document changes, you risk misunderstandings or disputes regarding the new terms. Without written documentation, it may be difficult to enforce the changes legally.

Yes, there may be specific legal requirements depending on the type of contract and jurisdiction. It's essential to ensure that the original contract allows for amendments and that all parties agree to the changes.

No, changes to a contract cannot be made unilaterally. All parties involved must agree to the changes, and this agreement should be documented in a Contract Variance.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who have entered into a contract may find that they need to make changes due to unforeseen circumstances. For instance, if the scope of work in a service contract needs to be expanded, a Contract Variance can formalize these changes and ensure both parties are on the same page.
  • Situations requiring a change in payment terms can arise in business agreements. A company may need to adjust the payment schedule due to cash flow issues, and using a Contract Variance allows them to document this change legally and clearly.
  • To comply with regulatory changes, businesses may need to amend existing contracts. For example, if new laws affect the terms of a lease agreement, a Contract Variance can help ensure that the contract remains valid and compliant with current legislation.
  • For those involved in long-term projects, changes in timelines or deliverables are common. A Contract Variance can be essential in documenting these adjustments to avoid potential disputes and misunderstandings later on.
  • Parties may wish to clarify or redefine certain terms of their agreement after initial negotiations. Utilizing a Contract Variance allows them to specify these changes formally, reducing the risk of future litigation.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate when the original contract explicitly prohibits amendments. In such cases, attempting to modify the contract could lead to legal complications or disputes.
  • – If the parties involved do not agree on the changes, a Contract Variance cannot be used. All parties must consent to the new terms for the document to be valid.
  • – In situations where the changes are minor and do not significantly alter the contract's terms, a simple email or informal communication may suffice instead of a formal Contract Variance.
  • – When dealing with contracts that are governed by specific regulatory frameworks requiring formal procedures for amendments, this form may not meet those requirements.
  • – If the original contract has already been terminated, a Contract Variance would not be applicable, as there would be no existing contract to amend.
