Arbitration Act (ZArbit), Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia, no. 45/2008

Slovenia is part of a group of countries that adopted a special Arbitration Act that provides a comprehensive legal framework for arbitration. The Arbitration Act is a modern and arbitration-friendly act summarising and integrating the key solutions of the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration (as amended in 2006) into the Slovenian legal system. The Arbitration Act thus establishes particularly favourable conditions for resolving international commercial disputes by arbitration in Slovenia.
