اقرار نامہ قرض
When is a loan agreement needed?
A loan between relatives, friends or business contacts is often given on trust and argued about later. This agreement records the amount, the date it was handed over, when and how it will be repaid, and what the lender may do if it is not.
Where it goes
The lender and the borrower each keep a signed copy. It is not filed anywhere unless a dispute goes to court, where it becomes the main evidence. The law of evidence requires a document about money or future obligations to be attested by witnesses, so two witnesses should sign.
Points to get right
- Write the amount in figures and in words.
- Hand the money over by cheque or bank transfer and note the reference. Cash leaves no trace beyond the paper.
- Fix the repayment clearly: one date, or instalments with their dates and amounts.
- Give a signed receipt for every repayment, and return or cancel the agreement when the loan is cleared.
- A claim for money can become too old to bring to court, so do not let an unpaid loan sit for years without written acknowledgement.

Before you sign
These are general formats to save typing. Requirements differ between offices, courts and provinces, and a paper about property or money has legal effect. Have the final wording checked by a deed writer or lawyer, use stamp paper of the correct value, and get the paper attested or registered where that is required.
