This study compares the approach that Qatari Civil Law No. 22/2004 ( QCL ) takes to standard terms with that taken by the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts 2016. The main difference between QCL and the UNIDROIT Principles, is that the QCL relates standard terms contracts with adhesion contracts. The latter are only concerned with strategic goods and services that are monopolized by the supplier. Another difference is the remedy; under the QCL , the judge has the authority not only to exempt the adhering party from the oppressive standard term, but to also amend that term. However, under the UNIDROIT Principles, surprising terms are invalid. The study recommends that the Qatari legislator remove the connection in the QCL between standard terms contracts and adhesion contracts, and limit judges’ authority to exempting disadvantaged parties from oppressive terms.

标准条款合同：卡塔尔民法和统一私法协会原则 2016 的方法。比较研究

本研究将卡塔尔民法第 22/2004 号 (QCL) 对标准条款采取的方法与 UNIDROIT 国际商事合同原则 2016 采取的方法进行了比较。 QCL 与 UNIDROIT 原则之间的主要区别在于 QCL 涉及标准条款合同与粘附合同。后者只涉及由供应商垄断的战略商品和服务。另一个区别是补救措施；根据 QCL ，法官不仅有权免除受约束方的压迫性标准条款，而且还可以修改该条款。但是，根据 UNIDROIT 原则，令人惊讶的术语是无效的。该研究建议卡塔尔立法者取消 QCL 中标准条款合同和附加合同之间的联系，
