Document background
The Addendum to Agreement is a crucial legal instrument under Belgian law used when parties need to modify an existing contractual arrangement without creating an entirely new agreement. It's commonly employed when circumstances require adjustments to specific terms, such as scope of services, pricing, duration, or performance requirements, while maintaining the core structure of the original agreement. This document type is particularly relevant in the Belgian business context, where contract modifications must comply with both the Belgian Civil Code and applicable EU regulations. The addendum must be carefully drafted to ensure it aligns with the original agreement's terms while clearly delineating the modifications. It's essential for business continuity and relationship management, allowing parties to adapt their agreements to changing circumstances while maintaining legal certainty.
