COFOLA International 2022. Current Challenges of Resolution of International (Cross-Border) Disputes

Kapitola

Abstrakt

The article examines the law governing a non-consumer contract concluded at an electronic auction. The paper discusses substantive international law and private international law, in particular Rome I Regulation. The analysis focuses on the autonomous interpretation of the auction and the country where this contracting process takes place. The considerations are supplemented by the study of selected auction platforms. The paper concludes that a contract formed at an electronic auction is typically governed by the law of the country where the seller has his or her habitual residence.
