An Assignment Consent Letter is a crucial document used when one party to a contract wishes to transfer their rights and/or obligations to another party and requires the consent of the other original contracting party. Under Swiss law, while many rights are freely assignable, certain assignments may require consent, particularly when explicitly required by the original contract or when the nature of the rights/obligations is personal to the contracting parties. The letter serves as formal documentation of this consent, complying with Swiss legal requirements, particularly those set out in the Swiss Code of Obligations. It typically includes identification of the original agreement, details of the proposed assignment, and any conditions attached to the consent. This document is particularly important in corporate reorganizations, M&A transactions, or other situations where contractual rights need to be transferred while maintaining legal certainty and compliance with Swiss law.
