REGULATION OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES IN CONTRACTS NEGOTIATED AWAY FROM BUSINESS PREMISES

Danas se sve više radi na tome da se zaštite prava potrošača, kako na nacionalnoj, tako i na europskoj razini. Potrošači nerijetko ulaze u ugovorne odnose ne znajući kakvim pravima raspolažu i kako ta prava zaštititi. Često se sklapanje poslovnih odnosa između potrošača i trgovca odvija izvan poslovnih prostorija trgovca. Ugovori izvan poslovnih prostorija su u Zakonu o zaštiti potrošača uređeni zajedno s ugovorima na daljinu. Krajem 20. stoljeća usvojena je Direktiva 85/577/EEZ od 20. prosinca 1985. za zaštitu potrošača u pogledu ugovora sklopljenih izvan poslovnih prostorija trgovca, a koja je prvotno uređivala takve ugovorne odnose. Zatim je Direktiva 2011/83/ EU Europskog parlamenta i Vijeća od 25. listopada 2011. ukinula prethodno navedenu Direktivu i Direktivu 97/7 EEZ o zaštiti potrošača s obzirom na sklapanje ugovora na daljinu. U svrhu pojednostavljenja pravila i uklanjanja nedostataka spomenute direktive zamijenjene su Direktivom 2011/83. Osim Zakona o zaštiti potrošača koji uređuje ovakvu vrstu ugovora, za naše domaće pravo bitno je spomenuti i Pravilnik o sadržaju i obliku obavijesti o pravu potrošača na jednostrani raskid ugovora sklopljenih na daljinu i ugovora sklopljenih izvan poslovnih prostorija. Pišući ovaj rad proanalizirala sam odredbe Zakona, potkrijepila ih sudskom praksom i objasnila svrhu sklapanja ovakvog tipa ugovora. Dakle, glavni cilj ovog rada bio je opisati prava i obveze potrošača i trgovca, način sklapanja, pretpostavke sklapanja te učinke jednostranog raskida ugovora izvan poslovnih prostorija trgovca.Today, there are higher intentions on protecting the rights of consumers, both at national and European level. Consumers often enter into contracts without knowing what rights they have and how to protect them. Often the conclusion of business relations between the consumer and trader takes place outside the buisness premisess of the trader. Contracts negotiated away from business premisess of the trader are governed in a Consumer Protection Act together with the contracts concluded at a distance. At the end of 20th century it was adopted Directive 85/577/EEZ from 20 December 1985. for the protection of consumers in contracts negotiated away from business premisess of the trader who is originally edited such contractual relations. Then the latest Directive 2011/83/EU of the European Parliament and Council of 25 October 2011., abolished previously mentioned Directive and Directive 97/77/ EEC on the protection of consumers in respect of distance contracts. In order to simplify the rules and eliminate defects, these two Directives were repleced by Directive 2011/83 EU. Besides Consumer Protection Act, which governs this type of contract, for our domestic law is important to mention the Ordinance on the content and form of notification of the right of the consumer to the unilateral termination of contracts negotiated at the distance and away from business premisess. While I was writing this article I tried analyze the provisions of the Act, supported by the practice of the Court and explain the purpose of entering into this type of contract. Thus, the main intention of this work was to describe the rights and obligations of the consumer and the trader, way of conclusion, the conclusion of assumptions and effects of unilateral termination of contracts away from business premisess of the trader
