Document background
The Independent Sales Contractor Agreement is essential for businesses operating in Denmark that wish to expand their sales reach through independent contractors rather than employees. This document is particularly relevant when companies need flexible sales representation without the commitments and obligations of direct employment. It addresses key aspects required under Danish law, including clear distinction from employment relationships, commission structures, territorial rights, and compliance with local commercial agency regulations. The agreement typically includes comprehensive provisions for data protection under GDPR, tax compliance, and professional liability, while establishing clear performance metrics and reporting requirements. It's commonly used in situations where specialized product knowledge or industry expertise is required, and the sales representative operates with significant autonomy while representing multiple principals.
