According to the ordinance n° 2016-131 dated February 10, 2016. And came into effect on 10 february 2016, and included wide-range fundamental amendments. And the most important of which may be the addition of the article (1182) to the civil code, which determined such three basic elements to the validity of the contract as the consent, the capacity to contract, and the licit and certain content of the contract.
