On March 2, 2022, the United States became the sixth signatory [3] to the 2019 Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Civil or Commercial Matters [4], following Costa Rica, Israel, the Russian Federation, Ukraine, and Uruguay. The Convention was signed on behalf of the U.S. by Ms. Jennifer DeWitt Walsh, Acting Deputy Chief of Mission. The Convention aims to "facilitate[...] the effective international circulation of judgments in civil or commercial matters" through a set of harmonized conditions for recognition and enforcement. The Convention will enter into force after it is ratified by two states. None of the six signatories have ratified the Convention.
