Article 57 of Commercial Code

English translation

A merchant may not disseminate matters contrary to the truth concerning the origin or characteristics of his goods or the importance of his trade, nor announce, contrary to fact, that he holds a rank, certificate, or award, nor resort to any other method involving deception, intending thereby to take away the customers of another merchant with whom he competes; otherwise, he shall be liable for compensation.
Arabic original
لا يجوز للتاجر ان يذيع امورا مغايرة للحقيقة تتعلق بمنشأ بضاعته او اوصافها او تتعلق بأهمية تجارته، ولا ان يعلن خلافا للواقع انه حائز لمرتبة او شهادة او مكافأة، ولا ان يلجأ الى اية طريقة اخرى تنطوي على التضليل ، قاصدا بذلك ان ينتزع عملاء تاجر آخر يزاحمه والا كان مسؤولا عن التعويض.
