NOTE: On 5 September 2023, CIETAC introduced new revisions (Revisions) to its current 2015 Arbitration rules, in response to the growing needs for flexibility and efficiency in the digital age and evolving practice in international Arbitration following a revision plan initiated in April 2021. The Revisions across over 30 articles include digital case management, multi-tiered arbitration agreements, jurisdiction, multi-contract arbitrations, arbitral procedures and other challenging issues. The Revisions will become effective from 1 January 2024, and apply to all CIETAC arbitrations commenced as of that date.
