The Azerbaijan Arbitration Association strives to promote international arbitration as a dispute resolution mechanism corresponding to the needs of the growing Azeri market. Azerbaijan’s geographical location, namely a neighbor to Turkey, Russia, Iran and the Caucasus countries, as well as its heterogenous culture developed under the influence of the Persian, Ottoman, and Caucasian cultures, contribute to making Azerbaijan a neutral international arbitration venue.

The Azerbaijan Arbitration Association has the ambition of bringing together lawyers from around the world who are willing to cooperate in achieving these goals through conferences and webinars, publications, networking events, teaching, research and, most importantly, the annual Azerbaijan Arbitration Day (AzAD). We invite practitioners, academics, students, arbitrators and magistrates to join the Association as members and to participate in the activities of the Association.
