BaghdadiLaw’s experience in non exclusive commercial agency in the UAE
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to non-exclusive agencies, with detailed knowledge of customer allocation, channels, commissions and the respective authority of agents and the principal. Several intermediaries can become involved with the same customer even where no general exclusivity was promised. UAE review clarifies lead allocation, commission triggers and signing authority, while checking that ordinary appointment terms are not confused with registered-agency status.
A non-exclusive UAE appointment requires careful classification because the registered-agency framework and ordinary commercial agency are not interchangeable. Review the actual role, registration and reserved channels before describing statutory exclusivity or termination protection. Record commissions, customer introductions and accepted orders separately from exclusivity expectations. Non-exclusive trading still requires review of the specific payment and conduct obligations agreed.
We agree the work your matter needs: Use customer-allocation rules where overlapping introductions cause disputes. Reconcile earned commission where the covered transaction is established; changing future reporting cannot by itself settle commission already earned under the earlier arrangement. The deliverable is agreed for your file: A customer-attribution and commission review with proposed reporting or appointment changes that distinguish past entitlements from future arrangements.

Before requesting advice on non exclusive commercial agency in the UAE
Can several agents operate without breaching the agreement?+
Examine the appointment terms, territory, customers and any reserved rights. Even without general exclusivity, specific customer or commission protections may matter. Compare each appointment and transaction before concluding that overlap is permitted or prohibited.
Does non-exclusivity permit diversion of an earned fee?+
Not necessarily. A specific commission entitlement can remain even without general territorial exclusivity.
Should the agreement say who may accept orders?+
Yes. Negotiating, accepting and fulfilling an order create different authority and responsibility questions.
