Hague Conference on Private International Law

The Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH) is an international organization established to create common rules governing cross-border legal issues. It focuses on areas like family law, international child abduction, and commercial matters. By developing treaties, the HCCH helps countries cooperate and resolve conflicts that arise when laws differ between nations. This enhances legal certainty and protects individuals' rights, making it easier for people and businesses to navigate international legal challenges. The Conference brings together member states to negotiate and adopt these legal frameworks.
