Cross-border trade in goods and services often comes with its own set of legal challenges. Our team of specialized experts is here to support you with tailored advice. We assist you in drafting and negotiating contracts for international sales and distribution, ensuring compliance with all applicable legal frameworks. Let us guide you through the complexities of international law with professionalism and expertise.
International Sales Law
International Sales Law
Whether you have German sales representatives working abroad, you are engaging representatives in third countries, or you plan to include dealers in your distribution network, a solid contractual framework is necessary. Within the European Union, the requirements are quite similar due to existing directives. However, in third countries, the legal freedoms—such as for claims related to compensation—are much broader. This makes it crucial to design contracts carefully, and we are here to assist you in doing so.
At the same time, we ensure that your sales representatives do not unintentionally establish permanent establishments, which could require you to pay income taxes in the respective country where your customers are located.
Cross-Border Supply Contracts
Cross-Border Supply Contracts
When it comes to cross-border deliveries, certain parameters need to be contractually defined, such as customs responsibilities. Due to the increased logistical challenges and associated risks, it is also crucial to establish regulations regarding delivery delays. Additionally, it is necessary to clarify who is responsible for VAT registration and payment in each country, and whether and how goods must be certified and labeled.
Our experienced team is here to assist you in drafting supply contracts and advising you on your current options.
