The Franchise Authorization Certificate serves as the foundational document for franchise operations in the United States. It is required when a business wishes to grant franchise rights to another party, ensuring compliance with both federal and state regulations. The certificate contains essential information about the franchise relationship, including operational requirements, territory definitions, and financial obligations. It must adhere to the FTC Franchise Rule and state-specific franchise laws, making it a crucial document for establishing legally compliant franchise relationships.
