French version
French law, for a business based in France, with a brand in France or abroad: you can choose French law even with a foreign brand. Based in Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Quebec or Morocco? The country guide says what to replace.
UGC Contracts Pack
A clear contractbefore you film.
A contract signed before filming means a deposit paid, rights granted one by one and fewer arguments after delivery. This pack gives you four complete templates, written under French law, and a guide to adapt them if your business is in another country.
The rights are granted for the following territory: [FRANCE / FRANCE AND FRENCH-SPEAKING COUNTRIES: LIST / EUROPEAN UNION / WORLDWIDE]. For online use, the territory means the countries targeted by the Brand in its ad settings.
A set territory and duration for each use protect your value: when it ends, the brand renews and you invoice again.
For you if…
- You landed a paid collab and the brand has no contract to offer.
- A brand wants to run your video as an ad, or from your own account (Spark Ads), and you don't know how to write it or what to charge.
- You want the deposit, the number of revisions and the payment terms in writing.

English version
A translation of the same contracts, to sign in English with a foreign brand. French law stays the default; the governing-law clause changes in one sentence, and the country guide, in English, gives the replacements for the five countries. For any other country, it lists what to check.
Fields to complete
Clauses are written in full: you fill in, you don't rewrite. Left blank: what is specific to each collab, such as both parties' details, company number, amounts, dates, deliverables, duration and territory of the rights. Every field to complete is in capitals between brackets and highlighted in yellow, for example [AMOUNT] or [DD/MM/YYYY]. When there are several options, they are listed in the field: keep the right one and delete the others.
Common questions.
Can I use the contract as is?
Yes, once the fields are completed and both parties have signed: the clauses are already written and checked against French law in force (October 2026). These are templates, not personalised legal advice; for a large contract or a special case, have it reviewed.
In which countries can I use it?
As is if your business is in France, whatever the brand's country. In Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Quebec or Morocco, with the replacements in the country guide (company number, legal references, governing-law clause). Elsewhere the structure holds, but have the clauses checked by a professional in your country.
What if the brand sends me its own contract?
Compare it with the pack's templates: rights granted, duration, territory, exclusivity, payment terms. You will know what to ask them to change.
What file formats?
Templates and the country guide in Word (.docx), which also open in Google Docs and Pages. In French, the user guide and read-only versions as PDF; in English, the user guide in Word.
