Iraq accedes to the New York Convention

On 4 March 2021, the Iraqi parliament ratified Iraq’s accession to the New York Convention by means of the Law on the Accession of the Republic of Iraq to the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. Iraq thus becomes the 169th State Party to the New York Convention.

The Convention will enter into force for Iraq once the law is published in Iraq’s official gazette.
