On 1 May 2023, the Saudi Centre for Commercial Arbitration ("SCCA") announced the publication of its revised SCCA Arbitration Rules (the "new Rules").  The new Rules apply to all arbitrations filed on or after 1 May 2023.  The new Rules replace the first edition of the Rules, which were published in 2016.

In a recent post on our Arbitration Notes blog, Dubai Partners Stuart Paterson and Nick Oury, and Of Counsel Sean Whitham, discuss the key changes introduced by the new Rules. The full post can be read here.

For more information, please contact Stuart Paterson, Nick Oury, Sean Whitham or your usual Herbert Smith Freehills contact.
