What is a Promissory Note?

A promissory note is a written promise by one party (the borrower) to pay a specific sum of money to another party (the lender) by a certain date or upon specific terms. It can include:

  • Loan amount and repayment terms
  • Interest rate (if applicable)
  • Payment schedule
  • Late fees or penalties
  • Conditions for default
  • Remedies in case of non-payment

Whether you’re a lender or a borrower, this document ensures clarity, minimizes misunderstandings, and provides legal protection for both parties.
