BaghdadiLaw’s experience in international arbitration award enforcement in Syria

BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to international arbitral award enforcement, with specialised knowledge of the award, arbitration agreement, notification record and potential enforcement objections. A foreign arbitral award intended for enforcement in Syria needs review of the award, arbitration agreement, service record and debtor’s assets. Winning the arbitration and obtaining a local enforcement decision are separate stages.

UNCITRAL lists Syria as a party to the New York Convention. Article 311 of the historical Civil Procedure Law 1/2016 addresses foreign arbitral awards, while Article 313 preserves treaty rules. The applicable treaty and procedural route must be assessed together. Foreign court judgments fall under a different statutory category and should not be treated as arbitral awards. Check that the award debtor matches the asset holder and that the record documents notice and participation. Preserve any set-aside or suspension proceeding without assuming its effect.

We agree the work your matter needs: Seek voluntary compliance, prepare the applicable recognition route or investigate a material documentation or jurisdiction obstacle before incurring further costs. The deliverable is agreed for your file: An award-enforcement readiness review covering documents, potential objections and debtor identification.

Common questions

Before requesting advice on international arbitration award enforcement in Syria

Does Syria’s treaty participation guarantee enforcement?

No. Treaty participation identifies a potential legal framework, not the outcome of an application. The award’s scope, procedural record, applicable refusal grounds and local requirements must be assessed.

Is a certified translation always enough?

Confirm the form and authentication required for the particular application; translation does not replace the underlying instrument.

Can enforcement collect from any related company?

Identify the actual award debtor and legal basis for any claim against another entity.
