Hong Kong: civil and commercial judgments: reciprocal recognition of Hong Kong and mainland court judgments.

Mak, Charles Ho Wang

Abstract

The Hong Kong Legislative Council passed The Mainland Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters (Reciprocal Enforcement) Ordinance (MJREO) on 26 October 2022. The Arrangement on Reciprocal Recognition and Enforcement of Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters by Courts of the Mainland and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, which was signed in January 2019, is implemented through this ordinance. Once implemented, MJREO will eliminate the need for parties to enter into an exclusive jurisdiction agreement to benefit from the mutual recognition of Hong Kong and Mainland court judgments.
