Meet Your Cross-Border Ally: Tremark Process Agents

Tremark Process Agents: Your Cross-Border Ally

Every cross‑border contract carries a hidden requirement: someone, somewhere, must be ready to accept important legal notices on your behalf. Enter the process agent – your single point of contact when you don’t have a local footprint. Today, we’re thrilled to introduce Tremark Process Agents, our sister company.

Understanding the Process Agent Role

A process agent is a contractual appointee who agrees to receive legal documents, such as summonses, demands, or notices, on behalf of a non‑resident party, scanning and forwarding originals or electronic copies without the appointee needing a local office.

In major cross‑border finance transactions – ranging from syndicated loans to export‑credit facilities – banks and lending agencies routinely require a process agent to ensure effective service of notices under governing law.

Beyond finance, process‑agent clauses appear in everything from international supply contracts to joint‑venture agreements, guaranteeing that notice‑related deadlines are met and procedural hurdles are avoided. In arbitration proceedings, parties often designate a process agent to expedite the service of arbitration notices and keep disputes moving without delay.

Legal Basis in England & Wales

Under CPR 6.1.1, service on a process agent’s address (contractually designated) is “good service” even if the party lacks a UK address. To comply, agreements must include a clause specifying the agent’s name, local address, and irrevocable appointment “for so long as any obligations subsist”.

How Tremark Process Agents Delivers Value

Tremark Process Agents exists to specialise exclusively in the contractual role of accepting court papers, demands, and arbitration notices on behalf of non‑UK parties – without those parties needing a local British address. Overseas clients can appoint Tremark Process Agents within 24 hours, after which any documents received are promptly notified and forwarded in accordance with agreed protocols.

Tremark Process Agents offers transparent, flat‑fee pricing for major jurisdictions, removing surprises and hidden surcharges. Every appointment engagement clearly outlines scope, service levels, and notification processes, so legal teams know exactly what to expect from receipt through forwarding.

Why a Dedicated Entity Matters

By creating a standalone company for process agent work, Tremark can focus entirely on getting notice-reception right. Every hire, every bit of tech, and every compliance check is built around that one goal, without the distractions that come with juggling multiple services under one roof.
