By submitting an RFQ, receiving a quotation, or placing an order, the Customer agrees to be bound by these Terms. AWEMARINE operates as an independent sourcing partner specializing in OEM and OEM-Reman spare parts for marine engines, driveline systems, and power generation equipment. AWEMARINE is not an official distributor of any brand unless explicitly stated.
Scope of Application
These Terms apply to all offers, quotations, RFQs, purchases, deliveries, and services provided by AWEMARINE, unless a separate written agreement is made. Any differing Customer purchasing conditions do not apply unless confirmed explicitly in writing by AWEMARINE.
Services Provided
AWEMARINE provides RFQ processing, OEM-only sourcing, preparation of quotations, supplier communication, logistics coordination, invoicing, and after-sales communication when applicable. Parts may be sourced from OEM manufacturers, OEM distributors, or verified independent suppliers depending on availability, urgency, and delivery conditions.
Quotations and Pricing
All quotations issued by AWEMARINE are non-binding and subject to availability and market conditions. Prices are exclusive of VAT, duties, import taxes, port fees, customs charges, and shipping costs unless stated otherwise. Prices may change due to supplier stock levels, logistics constraints, or currency fluctuations. AWEMARINE reserves the right to revise quotations before issuing an Order Confirmation.
Ordering and Contract Formation
A binding order is created only when AWEMARINE issues a written Order Confirmation and the Customer accepts it in writing, or when the Customer makes payment based on the issued proforma invoice or agreed payment terms. Submitting an RFQ or receiving a quotation does not constitute acceptance. AWEMARINE may decline any order before confirmation.
Payment Terms
Unless otherwise agreed, orders require payment prior to processing. Accepted payment methods include:
• Bank/Wire Transfer (SEPA, SWIFT)
• Stripe (Visa, Mastercard, corporate cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other region-supported payment methods)
• Revolut Business (bank transfer or payment link)
• PayPal (when applicable; processing fees may apply)
Payments must be made in the currency stated on the invoice. All bank charges and currency conversion fees are the Customer’s responsibility. AWEMARINE may suspend deliveries or withdraw credit terms due to late payments, missing payment confirmation, credit concerns, or outstanding disputes.
Delivery and Logistics
Deliveries are arranged according to agreed Incoterms (EXW, FCA, CPT, CIP, DAP, or others). Delivery dates and lead times are estimates provided by suppliers and logistics companies; AWEMARINE does not guarantee exact delivery dates. Delays may occur due to global logistics constraints, customs procedures, or supplier-related factors.
For shipments leaving the EU with a value exceeding €1,000, an export declaration is legally required.
• For EXW or non-DAP shipments, the Customer is responsible for providing or arranging the necessary export documentation.
• AWEMARINE may assist with export declarations if agreed or when acting as shipper of record.
AWEMARINE is not liable for customs delays, penalties, or costs resulting from incomplete export documentation provided by the Customer.
The Customer is responsible for unloading at destination, import duties, customs clearance, taxes, port fees, and related local charges unless otherwise agreed.
Inspection and Claims
The Customer must inspect the goods immediately upon receipt.
Claims must be submitted in writing to hello@awemarine.com within:
• 48 hours for transport damage or missing items
• 7 days for incorrect deliveries or visible defects
Claims must include supporting documentation such as photos, packing lists, serial numbers, nameplate details, and courier records. AWEMARINE may request the return of defective or incorrect items for inspection. Claims submitted after the deadlines may be rejected.
Warranty
AWEMARINE supplies new original OEM or OEM-Reman parts unless explicitly stated. Warranty coverage is provided solely by the original manufacturer or OEM-authorized supplier. AWEMARINE does not provide additional warranties on installation, performance, or technical suitability.
Warranty does not apply in cases of:
• incorrect installation or improper commissioning
• operation outside OEM specifications
• mixing OEM parts with aftermarket or incompatible components
• improper storage, handling, or maintenance
• misidentified parts based on Customer errors
• wear and tear or environmental damage
The Customer is fully responsible for confirming technical compatibility, correct installation, and compliance with OEM procedures. AWEMARINE’s responsibility ends upon delivery of OEM parts in the agreed condition.
Limitation of Liability
AWEMARINE’s maximum liability is limited to the invoice value of the goods supplied in the specific order. AWEMARINE is not liable for indirect or consequential damages, including vessel downtime, loss of charter income, delays in dry-docking, loss of profits, installation or removal costs, labor or diagnostic expenses, operational losses, or any secondary damage caused by incorrect installation or misuse.
AWEMARINE does not provide engineering verification, diagnostics, technical consulting, or installation oversight. All technical responsibility lies with the Customer.
Cancellations and Returns
Orders cannot be cancelled once an Order Confirmation has been issued unless AWEMARINE agrees in writing. Special-order, customized, or non-stock parts are non-cancellable and non-returnable.
Returns may be accepted only with prior written approval and only if permitted by the OEM or supplier. Items eligible for return must be unused, uninstalled, and in original OEM packaging with all labels and documentation intact. Return shipping costs are the Customer’s responsibility unless the item was supplied incorrectly or confirmed defective. Supplier-imposed restocking fees may apply.
Verified Supplier Network
AWEMARINE works with a curated network of verified OEM-focused suppliers. Supplier identities are not disclosed publicly. AWEMARINE may choose or change suppliers at its discretion to ensure best availability, delivery time, pricing, and compliance. AWEMARINE has the right to source from alternative suppliers if it benefits the Customer’s requirements.

In such circumstances, AWEMARINE will notify the Customer where feasible, obligations will be suspended during the disruption, and reasonable efforts will be made to resume operations. If a disruption lasts more than 60 consecutive days, either party may terminate the affected portion of the agreement without additional liability.
