台灣的OEM與ODM產業對台灣經濟有著舉足輕重的影響力，尤以電子業而言，全球許多知名大廠均仰賴台灣OEM與ODM的支援。由於OEM與ODM貿易的性質，使得契約在一件成功的OEM與ODM貿易中扮演十分重要的關鍵角色，然而，僅止於少部份的台灣OEM與ODM業主對此事實有所認知，以致簽下對已不利或是不公平的契約。
本論文目的在於讓非法律主修，但在工作中需要接觸OEM與ODM契約之人士，對OEM與ODM契約能有基本的認識。因此本論文內容涵蓋基礎的契約法概念、常見條文解釋與對於易造成爭議的條文之評論與建議。

OEM and ODM businesses in Taiwan are of great influence to Taiwan’s economy, especially when it comes to the field of electronics, many world-famous brands need the support from Taiwan’s OEM and ODM companies in order to be competitive. Due to the nature of OEM and ODM business, contracts are crucial to its success. However, only a limited number of OEM and ODM businessmen have this knowing to the fact, so as to end up in signing contracts that are unfair to themselves.
The purpose of this thesis is hoping to offer basic concepts of OEM and ODM contracts to people who are not law majors but need to deal with OEM and ODM contracts in their jobs. This thesis covers basic ideas of contract law, explaination of commonly used clauses and comments and suggestions to possible controversial clauses.
