When you sign a new electricity contract, its entry into force depends on several factors. Usually, the electricity contract enters into force within a few business days of signing it. In some cases, the contract may enter into force immediately or only on a date of your choice in the future.<\/p>\n

The entry into force of the agreement is influenced by, among other things, the electricity company’s practices, possible revisions and approvals, and the termination period of your current agreement. It is important to check the terms and the effective date of the electricity contract before signing it.<\/p>\n

If you want more detailed information about how quickly the electricity contract you have entered into takes effect, we recommend contacting the electricity company in question. They can give you more detailed information and instructions regarding the entry into force of the contract.<\/p>\n
