The Manufacturing License Agreement is a critical document used when a technology owner wishes to authorize another party to manufacture products using their intellectual property or technical know-how under Dutch law. This agreement is essential for businesses expanding their manufacturing capabilities without directly operating production facilities. It includes detailed provisions for quality control, technical specifications, royalty payments, and IP protection, all aligned with Dutch legal requirements and EU regulations. The document is particularly important in industries where protected technology or processes are central to product manufacturing, and it helps establish clear rights, responsibilities, and compliance requirements for both parties. The agreement must comply with Dutch civil law, competition regulations, and relevant EU directives while protecting the licensor's intellectual property rights and ensuring the licensee's manufacturing capabilities meet required standards.
