Mediation and Arbitration Procedure

For domestic arbitration, HKIAC has its own set of arbitration rules and an accompanying guide for the assistance of parties and arbitrators. For international arbitration, HKIAC recommends the use of its Procedure for Arbitration (including the UNCITRAL Rules). The UNCITRAL Rules were promulgated by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law in 1976. The General Assembly of the United Nations by its Resolution 31/98 recommended the use of the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules in the settlement of international commercial disputes.

If the parties wish to use the rules of the ICC, LCIA, AAA or any other arbitral institution, they may also agree that any dispute under these rules, although administered by the institution whose rules govern the arbitration, will be heard at Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre.

The Centre has its own set of Mediation Rules based on the Hong Kong Government's Mediation Service Rules but also has available a wide variety of other rules which may be adopted for particular disputes.
