Hague Convention on Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments

The Hague Convention on Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments is an international treaty that facilitates recognizing and enforcing court decisions made in one country within another. Its goal is to promote consistency, reduce legal uncertainties, and simplify cross-border legal matters by establishing clear standards for when and how foreign judgments are acknowledged and enforced. This helps individuals and businesses ensure that court decisions are respected across different jurisdictions, making international legal processes more predictable and efficient.
