Frequently Asked Questions

Can SIAC administer an arbitration whose place of hearing is in another country?

Singapore International Arbitration Centre
Yes, this is perfectly possible. SIAC can provide full institutional support throughout the arbitration remotely from the Secretariat in Singapore. The Secretariat can also act as a central depository of all original documents if the parties so require. The physical arrangements for the hearing, for obvious practical reasons, however, will be more conveniently arranged by the parties.

Place of arbitration and place of hearing? What is the difference?

Singapore International Arbitration Centre
The place of arbitration (also commonly referred to as the 'seat of arbitration') determines the governing procedural law of the arbitration and the enforceability of the award. The place of hearing, on the other hand, is the physical location where the hearing is held. This may be different from the place or seat of arbitration.
