A. LEGISLATION, TRENDS AND TENDENCIES

A.1 Sources of Arbitration Law in Poland

The main source of law in Poland regarding arbitration is the Civil Procedures Code (“CPC”), which dates back to 1964 and applies to both domestic and international arbitration. The CPC underwent a significant amendment in 2005, so that it now mirrors the UNCITRAL Model Law to a large extent. Arbitration issues are regulated in Part V of the CPC (Articles 1154 to 1217).

International conventions, in particular the New York Convention and the 1961 European Convention on International Commercial Arbitration, are other sources of arbitration law in Poland. Poland is also bound by agreements with numerous countries regarding access to justice and the protection of foreign investments that provide for the settlement of disputes by arbitration.
