What Is a Surat Niat (Letter of Intent)?
A Surat Niat, or Letter of Intent, is a written document that outlines the preliminary terms and mutual interest of two or more parties before a formal agreement is drafted. While typically non-binding, an LOI establishes the framework for negotiations by identifying key commercial points such as scope, pricing expectations, timelines, and conditions precedent. It is widely used in property acquisitions, joint ventures, franchise agreements, and government tenders. An LOI demonstrates good faith, accelerates deal-making by aligning expectations early, and provides a reference document that guides the drafting of a definitive agreement.
