Document background
The Commission Distribution Agreement is essential for businesses looking to establish a commission-based distribution network in the Netherlands and potentially other territories. This document type is particularly relevant when a principal wishes to engage distributors who will sell products or services on their behalf while maintaining more control than in a traditional distribution relationship. The agreement, governed by Dutch law, provides a comprehensive framework covering commission calculations, sales targets, territorial rights, and operational requirements. It incorporates relevant provisions from the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek) and EU regulations, making it suitable for both domestic and international commercial relationships. The document is designed to protect both parties' interests while ensuring compliance with Dutch commercial law, competition regulations, and industry-specific requirements.
