Is the short message of Guangzhou Arbitration Commission true or false?

It doesn't matter. The defendant's arbitration commission communicates directly with you.

Regarding the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards between countries, as early as 1923, there were the Geneva Protocol on Arbitration Clauses and 1927 Geneva Convention on the Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. However, due to the strict conditions and complicated procedures for executing foreign arbitral awards, it cannot adapt to the new situation of international economic and trade development. Therefore, in 1958, the United Nations Economic and Social Council held an international commercial arbitration conference in new york attended by representatives from 45 countries and relevant international organizations, and adopted the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards in June 10, which came into effect on June 7, 1959. According to the new york Convention, each contracting state must recognize and enforce foreign arbitral awards. Unless the parties prove the existence of one of the five situations specified in Article 5, the court applying for enforcement may refuse to recognize and enforce it. Recently, more than 120 countries have joined the new york Convention, which provides guarantee and convenience for the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards and promotes the further development of international commercial arbitration activities.

Since China joined the new york Convention in April 1987, China's arbitral awards can be recognized and enforced in the above-mentioned 120 countries or regions, regardless of whether these countries have concluded a mutual legal assistance treaty with China. According to the provisions of Article 72 of the Arbitration Law, if an award made by an arbitration institution in China is requested by the parties, and the person subjected to execution or his property is not in China, the parties shall directly apply to a foreign court with jurisdiction for recognition and enforcement. That is to say, if China's arbitral award needs to be recognized and enforced by other countries, as long as this country is a member of the new york Convention, the parties can apply to the foreign court where the person against whom the enforcement is applied is located or where his property is located for recognition and enforcement.

What needs to be reminded is that when considering an application for recognition and enforcement of an arbitral award by a foreign court with jurisdiction, it is best to entrust an experienced and capable lawyer in the place where the application is enforced to handle the application for recognition and enforcement. Hiring a good attorney can avoid unnecessary troubles, properly handle some problems, and greatly shorten the time for applying for recognition and execution. On the contrary, if the attorney handles the key issues improperly, the arbitral award will easily not be recognized and enforced.
