BaghdadiLaw’s experience in exclusive commercial agency in the UAE
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to exclusive agency agreements, with a thorough understanding of territory, product and sales channel rights and the performance obligations supporting exclusivity. Exclusivity disputes turn on what was protected: a product, customer group, sales channel or territory. For a UAE agency, compare the challenged transaction with both the appointment and registration rather than assume every competing sale has the same effect.
UAE registered-agency exclusivity must be assessed against the recorded products and territory under Law 3/2022. A broad marketing statement is not a substitute for the appointment's actual scope or for checking legacy registration and transition issues. Match the exclusivity wording to the alleged competing sales and covered territory. Identify contractual exceptions and direct-sales provisions before describing every outside sale as a breach.
We agree the work your matter needs: If the challenged sale falls outside the agreed scope, clarify future boundaries. If within it, assess the supported cessation or financial request. Territory or channel renegotiation may preserve the relationship where overlap is commercially manageable. The deliverable is agreed for your file: An exclusivity-scope comparison and transaction schedule identifying the disputed sales and a supported cessation, commission or negotiated-adjustment position.

Before requesting advice on exclusive commercial agency in the UAE
Does exclusivity cover every product and sales channel?+
Check the defined territory, products, customers and reserved channels. Compare the disputed sale with those definitions and any exceptions. Exclusivity should not be extended beyond the agreed scope without reviewing the registration and applicable framework.
Does exclusivity cover a different product line?+
Compare the product descriptions and amendments; common branding alone does not establish identical scope.
Is every direct sale a proven commission claim?+
Identify the applicable registered or contractual right and the transaction evidence before calculating an amount.
