A set of statutes enacted by the various States to provide consistency among the States' commercial laws. It includes negotiable instruments, sales, stock transfers, trust and warehouse receipts, and bills of lading.

These are not federal laws but since every state agrees to them, businesses can enter into contracts knowing that ever jurisdiction in the United States will enforce them.
