Document background
This document is essential in business relationships where there is a need to protect against the solicitation of employees, customers, or business contacts. A Non-Solicitation Agreement under Belgian law is commonly used in employment terminations, business sales, partnership dissolutions, or contractor engagements. It defines the scope of restricted activities, duration of restrictions, and geographical limitations, all while ensuring compliance with Belgian competition law and employment regulations. The agreement is particularly important in scenarios involving access to sensitive business relationships or key personnel, and must be carefully drafted to balance business protection with legal enforceability under Belgian jurisdiction. Key considerations include reasonable time limits, clear definitions of prohibited activities, and appropriate remedies for breach, all structured within the framework of Belgian civil law and EU regulations.
