Who this template is for

NDA Request Form is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in contracts & agreements.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 23 questions across 3 screens.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 17 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It accepts a document or photo upload as evidence.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features conditional hiding: if “Direction of the agreement” is Mutual, “Who is disclosing information?” is removed from the form and is never submitted.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Is the counterparty outside your country?” is Yes, “Preferred governing law” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Has the counterparty sent their own NDA?” is Yes, “Upload their draft” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Is this request urgent?” is Yes, “Why is it urgent?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

About this template

Legal teams lose hours to NDA requests that arrive as a one-line email with no counterparty details. This intake form asks for everything a drafter needs in a single pass. The requester identifies themselves, their team and the deal or project the agreement supports, then names the counterparty properly: legal entity name, country of incorporation, registered address and the contact who will sign. The direction of the agreement is a structured choice — one-way with your side disclosing, one-way with them disclosing, or mutual — because that single answer changes the whole draft. The purpose is described in a dedicated field, since a purpose clause that is too broad is the most common reason an NDA gets rejected in review. Term questions cover the confidentiality period, the survival period for trade secrets and whether the agreement must be governed by a specific law or jurisdiction, which appears only when the counterparty is overseas. The requester flags whether the counterparty has sent their own paper, uploading it for review, and states the deadline with a reason when the request is urgent. Everything routes to legal as one submission with a clean audit trail.

How the form changes as it's filled in

This template ships with 4 conditional rules, grouped into 4 behaviours driven by 4 questions. Everything below is already set up — edit or delete any rule once the template is in your workspace.

Driven by “Direction of the agreement

    If “Direction of the agreement” is Mutual, the form hides “Who is disclosing information?”, so nobody answers questions that don't apply.

  • Makes answers required

    If “Is the counterparty outside your country?” is Yes, “Preferred governing law” becomes required before the form can be submitted.

Driven by “Has the counterparty sent their own NDA?

  • Makes answers required

    If “Has the counterparty sent their own NDA?” is Yes, “Upload their draft” becomes required before the form can be submitted.

Driven by “Is this request urgent?

  • Makes answers required

    If “Is this request urgent?” is Yes, “Why is it urgent?” becomes required before the form can be submitted.

Frequently asked questions

Does it draft the NDA?

No — it captures a complete, structured brief so whoever drafts or reviews the agreement is not chasing basic details.

Why ask for the purpose separately?

The purpose clause defines the permitted use of the information, and a vague one is the most common cause of a redraft.

Can we review their paper instead?

Yes — answering that the counterparty sent their own NDA makes the upload required so legal reviews the actual document.

Can it feed our contract tracker?

Export submissions to CSV or push them onward, since every answer is a structured field rather than free text.

Is the NDA Request Form template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test NDA Request Form on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.
