Document Overview
As an international services provider, it's important that you have the right documents in place to make sure your services are delivered effectively, and even more importantly, that you get remunerated for those services. Extending your services overseas? You'll need an International Services Agreement. This document sets out the terms and conditions of those services between you and the recipient.
It is important for you to communicate the terms and conditions governing the provision of the services clearly to prevent disputes from arising. This agreement effectively allows you to extend your services abroad.
Please note that this agreement has been specifically designed for use when providing international services. If your services are of a more general or domestic nature, then you can use our services agreement.
The Legal Risk Score of a International Services Agreement Template
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- There is a risk associated with how intellectual property is managed, as the document specifies that all intellectual property rights are to be owned by one party, which could limit the other party's future use or claims to innovations developed during the service period.
- The stringent requirements around confidentiality could pose a risk of inadvertent breaches, given the severe consequences for unauthorized disclosure or use of confidential information.
- The document outlines specific criteria for accepting completed services, which could lead to disagreements or dissatisfaction if expectations regarding the service outcomes are not clearly aligned or understood by both parties.
