The Saudi Center for Commercial Arbitration (SCCA) has concluded its work representing the ADR industry in Saudi Arabia at the 76th session of UNCITRAL Working Group II: Dispute Settlement. The working group convened over the course of five days, 10–14 October, at the United Nations offices in Vienna.

The Saudi delegation, together with the representatives of the 64 member states of UNCITRAL and representatives of a number of relevant international organizations, discussed a guidance text on early refusal and preliminary determination in arbitral proceedings. The working group also considered technology-related dispute resolution and adjudication, which aim to provide a legal framework to resolve disputes in a Short time frame involving a third party with the relevant technical expertise, not necessarily resulting in final awards but the outcome still being enforceable across borders.

Saudi Arabia is at the forefront of countries supporting the growth of the legislative system of international trade laws and facilitating the exercise of this system. It was the fourth country in the world to ratify the Singapore Mediation Convention. This supportive stance resulted in Saudi Arabia attaining full UNCITRAL membership from 2022 to 2028.
SCCA's participation at UNCITRAL emphasizes its leading role in advancing the growth of the ADR industry and strengthening its international legislative structure, especially as the SCCA is among a small number of international arbitration centers with rules based on the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules.
