Arbitrability and restrictions on arbitration

How is it determined whether a dispute is arbitrable in your jurisdiction?

Egypt

Badran Law Office

Answer ... Matters that are subject to marital/family, criminal or employment laws cannot be subject to arbitration. The Egyptian law also sets out a generic principle governing arbitrability, which provides that any matter that cannot be subject to reconciliation is not arbitrable.
