If the contract includes a procedure of acceptance or verification, in line with paragraph 2, the maximum duration of the procedure shall not exceed 30 calendar days starting from the date the debtor receives the goods or services, including in cases where these goods or services are supplied before the request for payment. Verification periods may exceed 30 calendar days under the condition that sufficient justification and a mutual agreement by the parties is clearly stated in the contract without any ambiguities.
