Article 247. Court commissions on fulfillment of certain procedural actions

An economic court of the Republic of Uzbekistan shall execute commissions assigned to it by courts of foreign states (service of summonses and other documents, obtaining material, written, and digital evidence, conducting expert examinations, on-site inspections, etc.) for the performance of certain procedural actions in the manner prescribed by an international treaty or law of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

The commission of a foreign court is not subject to execution if:

2) execution of the commission does not fall within the competence of the economic courts of the Republic of Uzbekistan;

3) authenticity of the commission as a document on the basis of which execution of a certain procedural actions is requested has not been established.

Execution by the economic courts of the Republic of Uzbekistan of court commissions on the fulfillment of certain procedural actions shall be carried out in the manner prescribed by this Code, unless otherwise provided by an international treaty of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

The economic courts of the Republic of Uzbekistan may apply, in the order established by an international treaty or the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan, to foreign courts or competent bodies of foreign states with court commissions on performance of certain procedural actions.
