Liechtenstein as a arbitration location

As an arbitration forum for international legal disputes, Liechtenstein offers ideal conditions. Though located in the middle of the Alps, it is still easily accessible. From Zurich Airport you can get to Liechtenstein in around an hour, from Altenrhein Airport in just 20 minutes. It is also connected to the long-distance train network via the Buchs (CH) and Feldkirch (AT) train stations and is also easily accessible by car.

With the complete revision of the arbitration procedure in 2010, Liechtenstein aligned its arbitration law with the Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration («UNCITRAL Modellgesetz») and thus aligned itself with internationally recognized standards. The Supreme Court is the only competent authority that can set aside an arbitration award, which means that an appeal proceeding can be decided in a few months. The Liechtenstein Rules are particularly suitable for arbitration proceedings in corporations, foundations and trusts, in order to maintain maximum confidentiality.
