Core Legal Agreements in TIS

All memberships include key documents like the planning fee agreement, travel insurance waiver, travel services agreement, and terms and conditions. Additionally, a cancellation form will be available soon.

Note: For planning fees, TIS provides various structured options. Feel free to use the examples provided or make it your own.

Ensure your clients sign the travel insurance waivers. It's vital they accept their role and responsibility in choosing insurance and understanding the coverages. You've been provided with two options:

  • Via credit card is for agencies that use the customer's card to pay the travel insurance company

  • Via link is for agencies that send links to their customers, and it's the customer's responsibility to purchase the insurance on their own.

Note: For the travel services agreement, link to the full terms and conditions placed on your website for a streamlined client experience. Note that if your TSA does not link to your full terms and conditions, you may not use this form.

  • Embed website codes for automatic updates to terms and policies. Codes can be found under the Website Codes tab. Additional instructions can be found in our FAQs.

Note: Travefy websites may not support this feature, requiring manual integration.

Website Compliance

Ensure website compliance by having a privacy policy for personal data collection, an affiliate policy for affiliate links, terms of use including a DMCA provision, and establishing jurisdiction. 

Importance of Regularly Updating Contracts

Understanding that contracts are an ongoing commitment is crucial. It's a common misconception that once a contract is in place, it guarantees perpetual coverage.

Regularly reviewing and revising your contracts - at least annually or as dictated by the specific contract type - is fundamental.

Given the dynamic nature of legislation, with numerous bills under TIS's scrutiny, depending on a static contract can pose a significant risk. TIS strives to keep your business safeguarded and compliant

Reflecting on the time, effort, and resources you've invested in your business, it's paramount to ensure that your legal contracts are up to date, shielding your enterprise from potential legal vulnerabilities.

Best Practices for Executing Core Legal Agreements

Planning Fee Agreement

  • Send this to your clients for authorization and signature if you charge planning fees.

  • Ensure it links to your full terms and conditions, detailing your cancellation and change fee policies.

Travel Services Agreement (TSA) & Terms and Conditions

Once the client is set to pay for their booking:

  • Send the TSA for signature and payment authorization, ensuring it's linked to the full Terms and Conditions on your website.

  • If the TSA isn't linked, bypass this step and directly send the full Terms and Conditions for signature and payment authorization.

Adopt a routine of sending the TSA or Terms each time your client makes a payment, to ensure all transactions are well-documented.

Travel Insurance Waiver

  • When presenting a travel insurance quote, accompany it with relevant travel insurance agreement.

  • Require your client to accept or waive coverage, acknowledging their responsibility in policy selection and comprehension of coverages.

Cancellation Form

  • If a booking cancellation is on the horizon, ensure your client signs the Cancellation Form before you proceed with canceling any travel components.
