Proposal for a directive
Recital 14
(14) An off-premises contract should be defined as a contract concluded with the simultaneous physical presence of the trader and the consumer, away from business premises, for example at the consumer's home or workplace. In an off- premises context, consumers areContracts which are concluded away from the business premises of the trader are characterised by the fact that the consumer is not prepared for the negotiations of the contract and is under psychological pressure no matterregardless whether they/she haves solicited the trader's visit or not. Furthermore, in order to prevent circumventions of rules when consumers are approached away from business premises, a contract negotiated, for example at the consumer's home but concluded in a shop should be regarded as an off-premises contract. However, contracts which, according to the provisions of the Member States, are authenticated by a public official, do not present a situation where the consumer is put under such exceptional psychological pressure. Such contracts are hence neither considered as off-premises contracts nor as distance contracts within the meaning of this directive.
