Doha: The Qatar International Court and Dispute Resolution Centre (QICDRC) announced the enactment of Law No. 16 of 2024, issued by His Highness the Amir, which amends certain provisions of the Qatar Financial Centre Law No. 7 of 2005.
These new laws are set to expedite judicial procedures for resolving disputes with efficiency and quality to ensure litigants’ rights, achieve swift justice, and reduce litigation time.
It also seeks to enhance investor confidence, especially for foreign investors, in the Qatari judiciary.
This comes in light of previous amendments to the Qatar Financial Centre Law No. 7 of 2005 and Law No. 15 of 2021, which amended some provisions of Law No. 34 of 2005 concerning free zones.
These amendments extended the jurisdiction of QICDRC to include disputes in free zones and appeals against decisions of the Qatar Free Zones Authority.
