Abstract. The purpose of the article is to study the peculiarities of proceedings in cases of granting permission to enforce arbitration awards in civil cases and find ways to improve the current civil procedural legislation. Research methods. In the course of the research, both general scientific and special methods of cognition have been used. Results. The author has clarified the essence of the procedure for appealing to enforce arbitration awards in civil cases; elicited problems of the judicial procedure for granting permission to enforce arbitration awards; made proposals to optimize the current laws in legal relations under concern. Conclusions. The procedure for enforcing arbitration awards requires improvement. The legal issues that need to be settled within the current legislation include the resolution of the conflict between the norms of the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine and the Law of Ukraine “On Courts of Arbitration” in terms of determining the competent court authorized to consider the case of the issuance of an executive document. This power should be assigned to the court of appeal, as it is currently enshrined in civil procedural law. In addition, the legal requirement for requesting the case from the arbitration court by the state court is unfounded, given the nature of proceedings in cases of granting permission for the enforcement of arbitration awards. It is argued that legal grounds for a refusal to issue a writ of execution to enforce arbitration awards (arbitral panel, which made the arbitration award, did not meet statutory requirements; the arbitration award contains ways to assert the rights and protected interests not provided by law; the permanent arbitration tribunal did not provide the relevant case at the request of the court) should be excluded from art. 486 of the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine.
