Recognition & Enforcement of Judgments in Cyprus

The area of recognition & enforcement of foreign judgments in Cyprus is a rather complex one.

This is because depending on the place of issuance of the judgment, different rules apply. In addition, these rules are often prescribed by international treaties and conventions. Cyprus courts will perceive such rules as imperatives and will not accept any deviations.

It is thus prudent, before proceeding with recognition & enforcement proceedings to obtain a thorough, qualified and knowledgeable legal advice.

Our partner Ioannis Economou has an excellent record in multi-jurisdictional proceedings and has successfully represented numerous individuals and organisations before the competent Cyprus courts.

The reason is straightforward: if the Court determines that it lacks jurisdiction to hear the matter, the proceedings may effectively come to an end at the outset. Accordingly, the issue of jurisdiction must be determined by the Court as a preliminary matter and at the earliest stage of proceedings.

The Preliminary Reference Procedure Before The CJEU: Cyprus Jurisprudence

The mechanism of the preliminary reference stands as one of the cornerstones of European Union law. It establishes a channel of judicial cooperation between the national courts of Member States and the Court of Justice of the European Union ("CJEU"), ensuring the uniform interpretation and application of EU law across all Member States. Understanding this mechanism, and in particular the conditions under which a Cypriot court may invoke it, is of considerable practical importance for any party appearing in proceedings that raise a question of EU law.

Trade Secret Protection In Cyprus: Framework, Remedies, And Best Practices

In today’s knowledge-based economy, confidential business information represents one of the most valuable assets of any enterprise. Recognizing the importance of protecting such information, the Cypriot legislator enacted the Protection of Undisclosed Know-How and Business Information (Trade Secrets) from Unlawful Acquisition, Use and Disclosure Law of 2020 (Law 164(I)/2020), which transposed Directive (EU) 2016/943 into domestic law (the “Law”).
