Can the contract take effect if it is not signed when it expires?

The contract will still come into effect even if it is not performed. Because a contract can be established when both parties sign, seal or fingerprint it; it can also be established when one party performs the main obligations of the contract and the other party accepts it. A contract established in accordance with the law generally takes effect from the time of establishment. Therefore, after both parties sign, the contract is legally effective even if it has not yet been performed.
