The Name Licensing Agreement is a crucial document used when one party wishes to grant another the right to use their name, trademark, or brand identity in the Philippines. This agreement type is particularly relevant for businesses expanding through licensing, celebrities licensing their names for commercial use, or companies entering strategic branding partnerships. The document must comply with Philippine intellectual property law, particularly the Intellectual Property Code (Republic Act No. 8293) and DTI regulations. It typically includes detailed provisions on quality control, territory restrictions, payment terms, and usage rights. The agreement's structure reflects both Philippine legal requirements and international best practices in name licensing, making it suitable for both domestic and international parties operating within Philippine jurisdiction.
