Payment shall be made latest when due

>Payment shall be made latest when due according to agreed payment terms.

This is a sentence from a business contract.
I don't understand what "payment shall be made latest when due" mean.

Could you help me?

Thank you, teechr!

Maybe that means "payment shall be made by the agreed due date at the latest"?
But now that I know it is also unclear to native speakers, I think the sentence should be changed.

Thank you!

Yes, that is right, and yours is the right way to rephrase it. The point is that it can also be paid earlier.
