Authors : Khechai Mordjane . Baba Hamed Nassim .

Abstract

International commercial arbitration is a process by which a third party resolves the dispute between two or more parties, exercising the jurisdictional mission entrusted to it by the latter, outside state courts. The Algerian legislator; in the first instance, prohibited the use of this mechanism in disputes relating to international public procurement before formally adopting it through Law No. 08-09 on the Code of Civil and Administrative Procedure. The present paper aims to elucidate the legal framework of international commercial arbitration in the field of international public procurement under Algerian law. The study emphasizes the conditions for the validity of the arbitration agreement, as well as the rules governing arbitral proceedings and awards. In addition, it examines the procedures for recognition, enforcement and appeals against arbitral awards. The findings reveal that this mechanism, although accepted, remains strictly regulated.
