The Model Mother Agency Contract serves as the foundational agreement between professional models and their primary representation agency in the Philippines. This document is essential when establishing a long-term professional relationship where the mother agency takes primary responsibility for developing and managing a model's career. It's particularly crucial in the Philippine market where agencies often collaborate with international partners, requiring careful attention to both local regulations and global industry standards. The contract addresses key aspects such as exclusivity, commission structures, international placements, and model protection measures, while ensuring compliance with Philippine labor laws and entertainment industry regulations. For models under 18, additional protective clauses and parental consent requirements are incorporated.
