Commercial contracts

Zafo Law can prepare your new contracts, or we can review your existing agreements and adapt them to the current situation and future needs of your company. You decide whether we should be the company’s contract manager or whether we should just help with individual contracts..

In Spain, there are high contractual requirements.

When a Scandinavian subsidiary in Spain has to enter a contract, it is necessary to be aware that there are generally high requirements for formalities in Spain. For example, a private loan agreement is not valid with the Spanish tax authorities unless the contract is at least stamped by a public authority.

If you want to avoid unnecessary discussion and burden of proof in relation to, for example, signatures and date, a contract should be drawn up and signed in front of a Spanish notary.

If one is aware in advance that a possible dispute will involve the Spanish courts either for the settlement of the dispute or for enforcement, this should be taken into account already at the conclusion of the contract.
