Key features

  • What is licensed

    A blank describing the material, including any registration numbers, so the scope is specific.

  • Permitted use, territory and field

    Sections for what the licensee may do, where, for which market, and whether the licence is exclusive and allows sublicensing.

  • Fees and royalties

    A fee on signing and a royalty, with blanks for the rate, what it is worked out on, and the payment period.

  • Statements and records

    Each payment comes with a statement. The licensor can have the records examined, and the form has a blank for the level of underpayment that shifts the cost.

  • Quality control

    The licensee meets the licensor's standards and gets approval of samples before first use.

About this document

A licence agreement lets one party use something owned by another, such as a brand, a design, a work or know-how, without transferring ownership. It sets what may be done with it, where, for how long and for what payment.

This is a general licence form, to complete by hand. If you are licensing a specific kind of right such as a trademark, there are separate forms in the catalogue.

Questions

About the licensing agreements

  • No. The form says the licensed material stays with the licensor and the goodwill from its use belongs to the licensor.
