Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is a contract signed abroad enforceable in India?
A: Yes, subject to the Indian Contract Act, proper stamp duty, and provisions of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act for disputes. International contracts should always specify governing law, dispute resolution (arbitration), and enforcement mechanisms for maximum protection.

Q: What are the most common challenges in international contracts in India?
A: Regulatory compliance (FEMA, RBI, sectoral rules), tax implications, enforceability of arbitration clauses, and managing cross-border payments and intellectual property rights.

Q: Do you handle contracts for all industries?
A: Yes. We have sector-specific experts for technology, manufacturing, pharma, e-commerce, logistics, finance, and more—ensuring your international contract is both legally robust and commercially practical.

Q: How can AMLEGALS help foreign companies entering India?
A: From initial structuring and due diligence to drafting contracts, regulatory filings, and ongoing compliance. We are your single-point legal partner for a smooth, risk-managed market entry. Additionally, we have specialisation in global Data Privacy laws and AI regulations.

Q: Why do I need a specialist international contract law firm? 
A: International contracts involve unique challenges like conflicting laws, currency risks, and cross-border enforcement issues that a domestic lawyer may not be equipped to handle. A specialist firm possesses the necessary niche expertise in international treaties, trade laws, and arbitration practices to protect your interests effectively.

Q: What is the most critical clause in an international contract involving India? 
A: The “Governing Law and Jurisdiction” clause is paramount. It dictates which country’s laws will apply and where disputes will be heard. A strategically drafted clause, often combined with a robust “International Arbitration” clause, can save significant time and money if a dispute arises.

Q: How enforceable are foreign contracts and judgments in India? 
A: India is a signatory to the New York Convention, making foreign arbitral awards relatively straightforward to enforce. The enforcement of foreign court judgments depends on reciprocal agreements between India and the other nation. Our firm has extensive experience navigating the Indian legal system to ensure such enforcement is successful.

Q: What are the key risks in an India-focused international joint venture? 
A: Key risks include navigating FDI regulations, ensuring intellectual property protection, managing operational control, planning for exit strategies, and aligning on dispute resolution mechanisms. Our role is to identify and mitigate these risks from the very beginning.
