For example, the agent can develop the market, contact customers, take orders or bids, and – only if specifically authorized – enter into agreements in the name of the principal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is important to distinguish commercial agency from other arrangements. A reseller or distributor normally buys goods in their own name and resells them at their own risk, whereas a commercial agent acts on behalf of the principal and normally receives commission. For pure service mediation, consulting assignments, franchising, or resale, other contract templates should be used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigned based on the Commercial Agency Act (1991:351)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template package is based on the central rules of the \u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Agency Act (1991:351)\u003c\/strong\u003e. Several of these rules provide the agent with protection that cannot be contracted away to the agent's disadvantage. Therefore, the template does not contain simplified standard clauses that risk being invalid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe agreement covers, among other things, the loyalty duties of the agent and principal, commission during and after the assignment period, commission notes and supporting data, the agent's authority, notice periods, immediate termination, goodwill indemnity, damages, and non-compete clauses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e28 contract sections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Swedish main agreement includes, among other things:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eparties and background,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003edefinitions,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eappointment and scope of the assignment,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003egeographical area and customer base,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eexclusive or non-exclusive agency,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ethe agent's obligations and duty of loyalty,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ethe principal's obligations,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ethe agent's authority towards customers,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eprices, discounts, and commercial terms,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ecommission and other remuneration,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eaccrual, payment, and commission note,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ecosts, travel, and representation,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003emarketing and intellectual property rights,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eGDPR and information security,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003econfidentiality and trade secrets,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eanti-corruption, sanctions, and compliance,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003einsurance and liability,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003econtract term,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eordinary termination,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eimmediate termination,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003egoodwill indemnity,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ecommission after contract termination,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003enon-compete and business after termination,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ehandover,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003edamages and limitation of liability,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eforce majeure,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003enotices and assignment,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003egoverning law and dispute resolution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e14 practical appendices\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo make the agreement adaptable, fourteen separate appendices\/schedules are included directly in the document:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eGoods and product groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eArea, customer base, and exclusivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCommission and remuneration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCost and marketing budget\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReporting and KPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAuthority matrix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eContract term and termination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eOptional non-compete clause after contract termination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eResponsibility matrix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eContact and notice details\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDispute resolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePersonal data and systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBrand and marketing guidelines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCompliance checklist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCommission – more than just a percentage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe commission section is one of the most important parts of an agency agreement. Appendix 3 makes it possible to specify standard commission, calculation basis, currency, payment frequency, handling of returns and credits, post-termination commission, and bonus or commission tiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template explicitly notes that the commission model must be used in conjunction with applicable rules in the Commercial Agency Act. It therefore includes rules on commission notes, settlement, and the agent's right to necessary supporting data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCommission after the agreement has ended\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA common misconception is that all rights to commission automatically cease on the same day the agency agreement ends. Under certain conditions, the agent may be entitled to commission even on agreements concluded after the assignment has ended, for example when the business was primarily brought about by the agent's efforts during the assignment period and is concluded within a reasonable time thereafter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template therefore has a separate provision on \u003cstrong\u003epost-termination commission\u003c\/strong\u003e and instructs the parties to continue the final settlement even after the end of the contract when the law's rules are applicable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAuthority matrix – who may bind the principal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe agent may not automatically enter into agreements in the principal's name.

There, the parties can also specify excluded customers, central corporate agreements, e-commerce channels, and so-called \u003cem\u003ehouse accounts\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is particularly important that exclusivity and the commission model are formulated together so that it is clear which business should generate commission even if the order comes directly to the principal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTermination – adapted to the law's minimum rules\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor an indefinite agreement, the statutory minimum notice period is normally one month during the first year of the assignment and thereafter increases by one month for each started year of the assignment, up to six months. The parties cannot freely enter a shorter notice period to the agent's disadvantage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template therefore does not contain incorrect standard rules such as \"30 days' notice\" regardless of how long the agency has lasted. Appendix 7 helps the parties choose a contract term and notice period with consideration for the specific relationship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGoodwill indemnity – especially important in commercial agency\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen an agency agreement ends, the agent may under certain conditions be entitled to \u003cstrong\u003egoodwill indemnity\u003c\/strong\u003e. This may become relevant, for example, when the agent has brought the principal new customers or significantly increased trade with existing customers and the principal continues to have a substantial benefit from this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe agreement does not attempt to write away the goodwill indemnity in advance. Instead, the template contains a clear clause that the agent's mandatory rights must be respected and that any entitlement is assessed according to applicable law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNon-compete clause after the agency ends\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 8 contains an \u003cstrong\u003eoptional\u003c\/strong\u003e non-compete clause. It is not automatically activated. If the parties wish to use such a clause, it must be adapted to the requirements of the law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA subsequent non-compete clause must, among other things, be in writing, relate to the area or customer base assigned to the agent, and be limited to the types of goods covered by the agency. According to the law, it cannot bind the agent for longer than two years after the agency agreement has ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGDPR, CRM, and customer registers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgency agreements often involve the processing of contact persons, customer registers, CRM data, lead lists, and sales history. Appendix 12 helps the parties document which systems and personal data are used, what role each party has, the purpose of the processing, and what measures are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the agent processes personal data solely on behalf of the principal, a separate data processor agreement may be needed. The template therefore explicitly reminds that this issue must be assessed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEnglish Sales Agency Agreement according to Swedish law\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English version is a complete \u003cstrong\u003eSales Agency Agreement\u003c\/strong\u003e in English with the same structure and 14 schedules.
