Kluwer: Signing the Last Page of an Award is Now Sufficient in the UAE

For a very long time, certain UAE courts used to refuse the enforcement of awards that were signed only on the last page, while other courts allowed enforcement of such awards.  The position on this question has now been settled through a recent decision issued by the Authority for the Unification of Federal and Local Judicial Principles (“Authority”). It is now enough to sign the last page of an award for it to be enforced in the UAE.
