Grace period

Term · Law · MLC-T-LAW-002338

A specified length of time after a payment due date during which a penalty will not be imposed, or a right will not be forfeited. This allows for a brief delay in performance without immediate negative consequences. For example, many insurance policies include a grace period during which coverage remains active even if a premium payment is slightly late.
