PUTTING UZBEKISTAN
ON GLOBAL
ARBITRATION MAP
23-26 SEPTEMBER 2025 - TASHKENT, UZBEKISTAN
Uzbek Arbitration Week
The 5th edition of the Uzbek Arbitration Week 2025 (UzAW) will take place from 23 to 26 September 2025 in Tashkent and is jointly organized by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Republic of Uzbekistan and the Tashkent International Arbitration Centre (TIAC).
Uzbekistan continues to consolidate its position as a reliable arbitration seat. The adoption of the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration has marked a transformative milestone for the region, strengthening its legal infrastructure and reinforcing its position as a reliable arbitration seat. The latest TIAC statistics confirm this progress: as of January 2025, the caseload has tripled compared to January 2024, with 43 international cases registered, including a notable 25% in which both Parties were non-Uzbek entities. In 2024, TIAC was also nominated by Global Arbitration Review (GAR) for the prestigious “Best Innovation Award”, recognizing the pioneering TIAC–HKIAC Cross-Institutional Rules of Arbitration.
