court. Again, in the absence of international agreement providing other- wise (Thailand is not party to the Hague Convention on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents in Civil or Commercial Matters 1965), the court will arrange service through the Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Service will be effective 60 days after the date of such service. Where the non-domiciliary defendant conducts business in Thailand, directly or by agent, or by written agreement has designated an agent for service in Thailand, service may be sent to the defendant, his or her business or his or her designated agent at the location of the business of the defendant or the agent's residence. Service on a non-domiciliary defendant is effective 30 days after date of such service. A party need not be qualified to do business in Thailand to enforce remedies in Thailand. However, as Thailand is not party to any treaties or conventions on enforcement of foreign judgments, foreign judgments are not enforceable. Authenticated copies of foreign judgments may be received in evidence at trial. Thailand is party to the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (1958) and the Geneva Convention for the Execution of Foreign Arbitral Awards (1927). A final foreign arbitration award rendered in a proceeding wholly or mainly in a foreign country, reciting all matters required by applicable convention, may be recognised and enforced if it is not contrary to public policy or morality. The court may refuse enforcement on proof of defences such as: • annulment, invalidity or lack of finality of award; • lack of adequate notice during arbitration proceedings; • an award beyond the scope of, or not disposing of, issues submitted under an arbitration agreement; or • an arbitration proceeding conducted other than in accordance with the agreement of the parties or the law of the country in which the arbitration took place
