The Transition Services Agreement (TSA) is a crucial document in UAE corporate transactions, designed to ensure business continuity during ownership transitions. It is primarily used following mergers, acquisitions, or divestitures where one party needs to temporarily provide services to another to maintain operational stability. The agreement must comply with UAE legal requirements, including the Civil Code (Federal Law No. 5 of 1985) and Commercial Transactions Law (Federal Law No. 18 of 1993). TSAs typically outline detailed service descriptions, performance standards, costs, duration, and transition plans, ensuring smooth operational handover while maintaining compliance with UAE regulatory requirements. This document is essential for managing post-transaction relationships and ensuring both parties understand their rights, obligations, and the temporary nature of the arrangement.
