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.

CIETAC’s current arbitration rules took effect from 1 January 2015 (the CIETAC rules 2015). This Practice Note is UNDER REVIEW—it currently reflects CIETAC's structure and role as set out in the CIETAC Rules 2015.

This Practice Note covers arbitration under the CIETAC Arbitration Rules 2015 (CIETAC Rules), which, generally, apply to arbitrations accepted by CIETAC on or after 1 January 2015 (CIETAC, art 84). For guidance on arbitration under the CIETAC Rules 2012, see: CIETAC arbitration—overview.
