New UAE Federal Arbitration Law

The long anticipated UAE Federal Arbitration Law is issued by the President of the United Arab Emirates.

Earlier this year it was announced that the UAE Federal National Council had approved a draft UAE Federal Arbitration Law and that the draft law had been submitted to the President of the UAE for approval. In an important and encouraging step forward for the UAE, the President of the UAE has approved and issued this draft law, Federal Law No 6 of 2018 on arbitration (the “New Arbitration Law”).

In this article, Natalie Ledger comments on this new law and summarises the key changes it will introduce, which will be the subject of our next breakfast seminar on 19 June 2018 in Dubai.
