COMMISSION NOTICE Guidance on the interpretation and application of Council Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair terms in consumer contracts · European Union
At the same time, account must be taken of the fact that Article 6(1) aims to restore the balance between the parties through removing unfair terms from the contract while, in principle, preserving the validity of the contract as a whole, and not at the invalidity of all contracts containing unfair terms (309). However, a Member State may provide that a contract containing unfair terms may be declared invalid as a whole where this ensures better consumer protection (310).
