If a party who should go through formalities such as applying for approval fails to perform its obligations, the other party may request that it bear responsibility for violating such obligations.

Verbal promises have the force of law. The law stipulates that the parties may enter into a contract orally.

3. Is the oral agreement of the sales contract valid?

An oral form of contract refers to the conclusion of a contract between the parties by means of direct dialogue or by means of communication equipment such as ** conversation. The oral form of the contract does not need to be agreed upon by the parties. Where there is no agreement between the parties or where the law does not provide for a specific form of contract, it may be in oral form.

Article 465 of the Civil Code provides that contracts established in accordance with law are protected by law. A lawfully established contract shall only be legally binding on the parties, unless otherwise provided by law.

Legal analysis: The letter of commitment is actually a kind of contract, of course, it has legal effect, but the letter of commitment must meet the three conditions at the same time

1. It is a reflection of the true will of the parties;

2. There is no violation of relevant laws and regulations;

Legal basis: Article 143 of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China A civil juristic act that meets the following conditions is valid: (1) the actor has the corresponding capacity for civil conduct; (2) The expression of intent is true; (3) Do not violate the mandatory provisions of laws and administrative regulations, and do not violate public order and good customs.

As long as the third-party representative is a true expression of intent, and the parties have evidence to prove the content of their oral commitment, the oral commitment has legal effect. The law allows the parties to make a promise orally, but it also depends on whether the content of the specific promise complies with the provisions of the law, so it cannot be concluded that the oral promise must have legal effect, and the kind of oral promise that clearly violates the law is naturally not legally effective and is not protected by law.

Legal analysis. Verbal promises are equally legally binding. Civil juristic acts may be in written, oral, or other forms, and where the law provides for the use of specific forms, those provisions shall be followed.

As long as the third-party representative is an expression of true intentions, there is no fraud, coercion, or other circumstances that should be determined to be invalid or revocable or modifiable civil juristic acts in accordance with the law, and the parties have evidence to prove the content of their oral promises, the oral promises have legal effect. The law requires that civil activities should follow the principles of voluntariness, fairness, equivalent compensation, honesty and trustworthiness, and China has had the value of "people do not stand without trust" since ancient times, so the third-party representatives described in the question should fulfill their obligations in accordance with oral commitments. This is both a moral and a legal requirement.

However, oral commitments are unstable, and if the other party does not admit them, and the other party is unable to effectively provide evidence, it may lead to the situation that the other party may not fulfill the commitment. Therefore, it is very important to restore the objective situation at that time, that is, it is very important for the parties to be able to prove the content of the other party's commitment.
