Welcome to Curacao Legal Portal

There is a large legal community in the Dutch Caribbean. Especially Curacao houses all kinds of legal institutions, lawyers and associations. However, until 2007 there was no website with general information about the legal system of Curacao, its institutions and its practitioners.

Curacao Legal Portal, an initiative supported by the Court of Justice, the CIFA (Curacao International Financial Services Association), a number of local law firms and the University of the Netherlands Antilles, aims to fill this void.

Besides this we provide the latest news, background information, a databank with laws and statutes and the agenda of the Court of Justice. We continuously try to expand the different fields on which information is offered and keep all the information duly updated.
