Latvia - Using an Agent to Sell US Products and ServicesLatvia - Using an Agent
There are no laws in Latvia that regulate the relationship between a foreign company and its distributors or agents in Latvia. A distributor relationship can be terminated according to the provisions stipulated in each specific distributor agreement. EU legislative acts regarding this subject have been incorporated into local law.
A common practice is to appoint one distributor/agent to cover the entire country, or the entire Baltic region (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania). Due to the small size of the Latvian market, one importer may carry products from several industry sectors.
U.S. companies looking for agents or distributors in Latvia should contact the nearest U.S. Department of Commerce Export Assistance Center.
