How Specific State Franchise Laws Play an Important Role for Franchisors
For established franchisors and start-up franchisors alike an important aspect of franchising is franchise law compliance. There are two types of laws that franchisors must abide by. The first type is a federal franchise law. The Federal Franchise Rule consists of laws that must be followed by franchisors without prejudice to the state a franchisor is in or is offering/selling franchise locations in. The second type of franchise laws are state franchise laws. State franchise laws are not present in every state so it is important to be aware of which states have specific franchise laws and which do not. These laws also vary state by state when it comes to franchise registration, franchise registration exemptions, and other franchise laws.
