Retention of title (ROT) is a contractual clause that allows a seller to retain ownership of goods until the buyer has paid for them. The ROT clause is commonly used in business transactions where goods are supplied on credit. The purpose of the ROT clause is to ensure that the seller has security over the goods until payment is received.

ROT disputes can quickly escalate and cause a strain on once-fruitful partnerships. It can cause both sides to lose income and can even damage a business’s reputation.
