The notification by Brazil to the WTO under Article 63.2 of TRIPS states:
'This Law contains provisions concerning arbitration.'
With the coming into force of this Law, foreign arbitration awards are recognized and executed in Brazil once ratified by the Federal Supreme Court, thereby dispensing with the previous necessity for ratification of the awards by a judge in the country where the awards were granted.
