Franchise Act will take effect on January 1, 2021 – mr. AW Dolphijn – dated December 3, 2020
The Franchise Act was already adopted on July 1, 2020, but it has now also been established by Royal Decree that the Franchise Act will enter into force on January 1, 2021.
There is less than 2 months between the moment of the publication of the Royal Decree and its entry into force. This is contrary to policy (Instructions for the regulations), but is being “brushed away” because everyone would already assume the entry into force on 1 January 2021, according to the State Secretary.
Are you sure that you have already made the necessary preparations in connection with the entry into force of the Franchise Act?
