English translation
If, when concluding the contract, the representative does not disclose that he is contracting in the principal's name, the person contracting with him shall not be compelled to regard the contract as existing between himself and the principal, unless he knew, or ought to have known, that the contract was concluded through representation, or it was immaterial to him whether the contract was concluded with the representative or the principal.
Arabic original
إذا لم يظهر النائب، وقت إبرام العقد، أنه يتعاقد باسم الأصيل، فإن المتعاقد معه
لا يجبر على اعتبار العقد قائما بينه وبين الأصيل, إلا إذا كان يعلم, أو كان مفروضا
فيه أن يعلم أن التعاقد قد حصل بطريق النيابة، أو كان يستوي عنده أن يكون
التعاقد حاصلا مع النائب أو الأصيل.Court of Cassation principles citing this article
