Angola - Angola on the verge of completing the procedure of accession to the New York Convention

On 19 December 2016, Accession Charter No. 10/16, of December 19 issued by the President of the Republic ("Carta de Adesão") was published in the Official Gazette of the State. This act represents an important step towards the conclusion of the accession procedure of the Republic of Angola to the New York Convention (NYC).

As we noted in the Newsletter published in August, notwithstanding Resolution No. 38/16 of 12 August, the accession process would only be completed with two more steps. The next step is the deposit of the said instrument of accession with the Secretary-General of the United Nations.
