This thesis examines the international and domestic legal framework governing the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards in the Republic of Uzbekistan. It analyses the 1958 New York Convention, the Law of the Republic of Uzbekistan “On International Commercial Arbitration,” and Chapter 33 of the Economic Procedure Code. It argues that the national model generally reflects the central international principle that judicial scrutiny at the enforcement stage must not become a review of the merits and that refusal is permissible only on a limited set of grounds. At the same time, practical difficulties may arise from the coordination of treaty and procedural rules, documentary requirements, the interpretation of public policy, the determination of the applicable limitation period, and the absence of a sufficiently accessible empirical basis for assessing the consistency of judicial practice. The thesis proposes clearer procedural guidance, a narrow interpretation of public policy, broader publication of anonymized judicial decisions, and standardized requirements for documents and translations.
