Poland is developing into a highly arbitration friendly forum.

Proceedings to set aside an award are admitted only on very rare

occasions. To provide security for claims that are subject to arbitration,

Polish common courts prior to or during the course of arbitral

proceedings can and do grant interim measures. There are various ways

of securing claims. Monetary claims can be secured in a limited number

of ways, while there is a much broader range of possibilities as regards

non-monetary claims. The Polish Civil Procedure Code provides for a 7-

day deadline for a court to grant or reject an interim measure, thereby

contributing to the efficiency of proceedings in terms of execution.

exclude the possibility of granting interim measures of

protection by the court in respect of claims pursued before the

arbitral tribunal.”

 

 

The type of security to be granted depends on the type of claim.

Polish law provides for various types of interim measure in respect of (1)
