The new VT law which had a pending amendment that would have deleted the requirement to affirmatively opt-in to the automatic renewal of a contract did not get through the Senate in this last session. Since the legislature is now out of session the new law stands as is and goes into effect on July 1, 2019. This law applies to both individuals (B2C) and businesses (B2B) where the initial term is one year or more that automatically renews for subsequent terms that are longer than one month.
