Uzbekistan’s arbitration framework presents a compelling case study of legal pluralism in the post-Soviet space. Since independence in 1991, the country has acceded to a constellation of international instruments – including the 1992 Kyiv Convention on the Resolution of Disputes Arising from Business Activities, the 1958 New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, the 1966 ICSID Convention, and the Energy Charter Treaty – while simultaneously maintaining an evolving domestic legislative architecture. For nearly fifteen years, the 2006 Law on Arbitration Courts (“DAL”) governed all arbitration-related matters without distinction between domestic and international proceedings, producing significant constraints on arbitrator nationality, applicable law, and international enforceability. The adoption of the 2021 International Commercial Arbitration Law (“ICA Law”), modelled on the UNCITRAL Model Law, marked a watershed moment. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of Uzbekistan’s multi-layered treaty framework, examining the interplay between the Kyiv Convention, the New York Convention, bilateral investment treaties, and the ICSID Convention. It critically evaluates the adequacy of the ICA Law in addressing gaps inherited from decades of reliance on the DAL, and assesses Uzbekistan’s compliance with UNCITRAL Model Law standards. Drawing on investment arbitration jurisprudence – including Metal-Tech v. Uzbekistan, Oxus Gold plc v. Uzbekistan, and Romak S.A. v. Uzbekistan – and comparative practice from other CIS jurisdictions, the article maps the unresolved questions of treaty hierarchy and offers recommendations for legislative harmonization.
