Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know.

What should a distribution agreement include?

A comprehensive distribution agreement should cover: territory (exclusive or non-exclusive), appointment and term, minimum purchase obligations, pricing and margins, marketing obligations, IP and trademark licence, reporting requirements, termination provisions, and post-termination obligations (stock return, customer notification).

Can I sign international distribution agreements via Zignature?

Yes. Zignature's e-signatures comply with ESIGN Act (US), eIDAS (EU), and equivalent laws in most major markets. For distribution agreements in countries with specific e-signature requirements, consult local counsel.

How do I enforce minimum purchase commitments if a distributor underperforms?

Include performance reviews and cure periods in your distribution agreement template. Signed annual performance review documents — sent via Zignature — create a paper trail supporting termination for non-performance if cure periods are not met.

Can I send distribution agreements to multiple new partners simultaneously?

Yes. Zignature's bulk send dispatches distribution agreements to multiple new partners simultaneously. Each receives a personalised agreement with their territory and terms — completion tracked per partner.

How do I handle distribution agreement renewals and annual price updates?

Create annual renewal and price list templates. Set expiry tracking on distribution agreements — renewal documents dispatch automatically 90 days before expiry. Annual price list amendments are sent separately for partner acknowledgement.

Do distribution agreements require notarisation?

Distribution agreements generally do not require notarisation in the US. Some international jurisdictions may require legalisation or apostille for cross-border enforcement — consult local counsel for high-value international distribution arrangements.
