Document background
The Freelancer Offer Letter is a crucial document used when a company wishes to engage an independent contractor in Denmark. It serves as both the formal offer and, upon acceptance, the governing document for the freelance relationship. This document is specifically designed to comply with Danish law regarding independent contractors and includes essential provisions about the scope of work, payment terms, contractor status, and legal obligations. The letter is structured to clearly differentiate the engagement from employment relationships, addressing key aspects such as taxation, intellectual property rights, and confidentiality while maintaining compliance with Danish regulations regarding independent contractors. It's particularly important in the current gig economy where companies increasingly rely on freelance expertise for specific projects or specialized work.
