What is the consequence of a license contract not conforming to the law?
If a technology transfer arrangement fails to conform to the mandatory or prohibited provisions, it becomes unenforceable. However, it may remain valid if it is specifically registered and approved as an exceptional case. Otherwise, non-conformance results in the automatic loss of legal standing for the contract. This consequence is found in Section 92 Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines. “SEC. 92. Non-Registration… Non-conformance with any of the provisions of Sections 87 and 88, however, shall automatically render the technology transfer arrangement unenforceable…” January 3, 2026About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
