Rome Convention

The Rome Convention, officially known as the International Convention on the Law Applicable to Contractual Obligations (1980), is an international treaty that helps determine which country's laws apply to contracts between parties from different nations. It aims to promote legal certainty and fairness by establishing clear rules for resolving cross-border contractual disputes. The Convention mainly applies to contracts made within its signatory countries, offering common principles that countries agree upon, reducing confusion and legal conflicts in international trade and transactions.
