Arbitration, as one of the most prominent alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, has gained increasing significance in the field of intellectual property (IP) disputes in recent years. IP disputes are often complex, technical, and international in nature, making their resolution through ordinary courts challenging. Arbitration offers several advantages such as expert adjudication, faster proceedings, confidentiality, and procedural flexibility. In the Iranian legal system, although specific IP laws do not explicitly refer to arbitration, the general provisions of the Law on International Commercial Arbitration and the Civil Procedure Code provide the necessary legal framework for its use in IP-related matters.At the international level, major instruments such as the 1958 New York Convention, the TRIPS Agreement, and the arbitration rules of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) have played a vital role in promoting arbitration for IP disputes. These instruments not only ensure the recognition ‏and enforcement of arbitral awards but also provide structured mechanisms for resolving cross-border disputes. Given the increasing pace of globalization and international commerce, it is essential for Iran’s legal framework to align more closely with international standards and practices in the field of IP arbitration.
