The Self-Employed Contractor Agreement is essential for businesses operating in Denmark that engage independent professionals for specific projects or services. This document is designed to comply with Danish legal requirements while protecting both parties' interests. It's particularly important given the distinction between employees and contractors under Danish law, addressing key aspects such as taxation, social security obligations, and business registration requirements. The agreement should be used when engaging individuals who operate as genuine independent contractors, providing services through their own business entity, with control over their work methods and timing. It includes comprehensive provisions for service delivery, payment terms, intellectual property rights, data protection, and professional liability, all aligned with Danish regulatory requirements.
