The purpose of national football agent regulations is to provide a national regulatory framework that exists in parallel with the FFAR. The national football agent regulations govern the occupation of Football Agents within the territory under the jurisdiction of the relevant member associations and apply to all Representation Agreements that do not have an international dimension.
Such national football agent regulations shall:
- incorporate articles 11 to 21 of the FFAR;
- incorporate any mandatory elements of the relevant national law;
- provide jurisdiction to a national-level body for the determination of any disputes as provided for in article 20 paragraph 3 of the FFAR; and
- provide jurisdiction to a national-level body to take disciplinary measures as provided for in article 21 paragraph 2 of the FFAR.
Member associations may introduce stricter measures than those stipulated in articles 11 to 21 of the FFAR or deviate from them where those provisions conflict with stricter mandatory provisions of the relevant national law.
