Request Received By Clause Samples

The "Request Received By" clause defines the point at which a formal request is considered to have been officially received by a party under the agreement. Typically, this clause specifies the acceptable methods of delivery—such as email, postal mail, or courier—and may outline the exact time or date when receipt is deemed to occur, for example, upon actual delivery or after a set number of business days. Its core practical function is to eliminate ambiguity about when obligations triggered by a request begin, ensuring both parties have a clear and agreed-upon timeline for responding to or acting on requests.
