Is your state a party to the New York Convention? Are there any noteworthy declarations or reservations?
Nigeria is a party to the New York Convention, and it acceded to the Convention on 17 March 1970. The Convention came into force in Nigeria on 15 June 1970. The Convention, however, will only apply to the recognition and enforcement of awards made in the territory of a state party to the Convention and to contractual or non-contractual disputes arising from legal relationships that are considered as commercial under the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
