The Reseller Authorization Letter is a fundamental business document used in the Nigerian market to establish formal reseller relationships between companies and their authorized distributors. This document is particularly important in the Nigerian business context, where clear authorization documentation is required for legitimate business operations and compliance with local regulations. It provides official recognition of the reseller's authority to sell specific products or services, typically including details about the scope of authorization, territorial rights, and basic terms of the arrangement. The document is designed to comply with Nigerian commercial law, including the Companies and Allied Matters Act and Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act, while being simpler and more concise than a full reseller agreement. It's commonly used when a quick authorization is needed or as a preliminary document before a more comprehensive agreement is put in place.
