Article 1525 of the French Code of civil procedure

An appeal may be lodged against a decision ruling on an application for recognition or enforcement of an arbitral award made abroad.

An appeal shall be lodged within one month of service of the decision.

The parties may, however, agree on another method of notification where the appeal is lodged against the award which has been granted exequatur.

The Court of Appeal may refuse recognition or exequatur of the arbitral award only in the cases provided for in Article 1520.

Article 1525

La décision qui statue sur une demande de reconnaissance ou d’exequatur d’une sentence arbitrale rendue à l’étranger est susceptible d’appel.

L’appel est formé dans le délai d’un mois à compter de la signification de la décision.

Les parties peuvent toutefois convenir d’un autre mode de notification lorsque l’appel est formé à l’encontre de la sentence revêtue de l’exequatur.

La cour d’appel ne peut refuser la reconnaissance ou l’exequatur de la sentence arbitrale que dans les cas prévus à l’article 1520.
