According to the provisions of the Convention of the International Sale of Goods, one of the commitments of vendor is that the vendor should sale a good to the customer based on the described quantity and quality which is expressed in the contract. In other words, the goods being sold should be delivered according to the contract (Article 35 of the convention), in case of not complying with the contract, based on the second paragraph of Article 46 of the convention, the customer will have the right of substitution, and based on the third paragraph, the customer will have the right of repair and amending the goods with considering some conditions. In Iran’s Law, although it is not explicitly referred to the rights troubleshooting, but by studying the provisions, it can be mentioned that according to Article 414 and 482 of civil law, the customer can return the defected goods to the vendor and demand the substitution for it. Since the customer have the right of demanding for substitution of the defected goods, therefore, the customer will have the right of troubleshooting, too.
