NDA Template for UAE
NDAs in the UAE operate under a dual legal framework: UAE Federal Civil Code for onshore agreements, and either DIFC or ADGM law for parties operating within those free zones. International parties frequently select DIFC courts for their English-language common law proceedings.
UAE-specific legal consideration
Parties in the UAE frequently choose DIFC or ADGM courts as neutral dispute resolution forums — NDAs should specify which jurisdiction governs and whether arbitration (DIAC, ICC, LCIA) is preferred over litigation.
