What the law says
- EU Civil Law principle — contracts are valid regardless of form unless the law requires written format.
- eIDAS Regulation (EU 910/2014) — qualified electronic signatures carry the same legal weight as handwritten ones.
- Romanian Law 455/2001 — national recognition of electronically signed documents.
- GDPR (Regulation 2016/679) — personal data in contracts must be processed lawfully and stored securely.
- Romanian Labour Code art. 16 — individual employment contracts must be concluded in written form.
Practical examples
- IT maintenance service contract for a SaaS startup (24 months, SLA clause and late-payment penalties).
- Freelancer collaboration agreement — includes NDA clause and intellectual property rights assignment.
- Product supply contract between two Romanian companies — 30-day payment term, force majeure clause.
- Individual employment contract for a remote employee based in a different city from the company headquarters.
Common mistakes
- Missing confidentiality clause in a contract with an external freelancer who accesses sensitive data.
- No contract duration or early termination conditions specified — leads to costly disputes.
- Using a generic contract template found online that is not updated to current legislation.
- Signing a contract without verifying the other party's identity — risk of fraud or void contract.
