BaghdadiLaw’s experience in commercial agency contract in Syria
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to commercial agency agreements, with a thorough understanding of agent authority, principal obligations and the terms governing continuation and exit. A Syrian commercial agency contract should say whether the agent can bind the principal, collect money or appoint others. Confusing sales assistance with authority to contract can leave both the principal and customers uncertain about who owes performance.
Article 154 of Trade Law 33/2007 distinguishes ordinary commercial agency from commission agency. Articles 156–160 address the scope of authority, instructions, delegation and contracting with oneself; Article 167 refers remaining matters to compatible civil-law rules. This historical framework should be checked alongside any applicable special agency regime before signature. Internal approval limits and authority communicated to customers may differ. Review both the signed mandate and the documents used externally rather than relying only on job titles.
We agree the work your matter needs: Use limited approval powers for sensitive transactions, amend reporting arrangements or assess disputed acts individually if the relationship has already operated. The deliverable is agreed for your file: The review can produce an authority schedule and revised agency clauses addressing execution, collections, reporting and exit obligations.
