The Ministry of Finance explained how to notify the supplier of refusal to accept a Bank guarantee under the Law N 44-FZ
A Bank guarantee can provide, in particular, obligations under a contract. In some cases, the customer must refuse it. If such a decision is made, it is necessary to notify the supplier (contractor, contractor), specifying the reasons for the refusal.
The Ministry of Finance explained that the notification is prepared in free written or electronic form. It is enough to list the reasons for refusing to accept a Bank guarantee. There are no other requirements for the document.
Note that some control authorities believe that it is not necessary to send a separate document. So, the Moscow UFAS noted: the reasons can be specified in the Protocol of refusal to conclude a contract. This will be the notification.
