TreatiesIs your country party to any bilateral or multilateral treaties for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments? What is the country’s approach to entering into these treaties, and what, if any, amendments or reservations has your country made to such treaties?>>🔗

The local federal United Arab Emirates (UAE) courts follow the laws of the UAE. The courts themselves are not capable of entering into international treaties but are bound by any treaty signed and ratified by the UAE.

The UAE is a party to two principal multilateral treaties relating to the enforcement of foreign judgments, namely the 1983 Riyadh Arab Convention for Judicial Co-operation and the 1996 Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) Convention for the Execution of Judgments, Delegations and Judicial Notifications.
