The DIFC Contracts Law and the DIFC Implied Terms in Contracts and Unfair Terms Law

This title covers the DIFC Contract Law, DIFC Law No. 6/2004 which was introduced soon after the Centre itself was established in 2004. Even though the DIFC’s Court system is established along English common law lines, the DIFC Contract Law is very clearly not a codification of the English (or any other) common law of contract. Analysis, details of relevant cases and the differences and similarities to the international legislation on which this law was based are provided on a provision by provision basis. DIFC Implied Terms in Contracts and Unfair Terms Law The Implied Terms in Contract and Unfair Terms Law, DIFC Law No. 6/2005 (Part 2) applies in the case of three specific types of contract, namely those relating to the sale or hire of property (but not real estate); those relating to the supply of services and those relating to auctions
