The National Commercial Arbitration Centre of Cambodia
("NCAC") was established in 2006 and has been in
operation since 2013. NCAC adopted its first arbitration rules in
2014, which were amended in 2021 ("2021 Rules"). There
are various key aspects in the 2021 Rules which relate to the key
stages of arbitral proceedings: (i) commencement of arbitration,
(ii) interim stage, (iii) hearings, and (iv) issuance of award.
Commencement of Arbitration
The commencement of arbitration consists of three main
steps:
- Filing of the notice of arbitration ("Notice") by the
Claimant with all supporting information or documents and payment
of the registration fee with the General Secretariat of NCAC
("GSNCAC"). The arbitral proceedings commence from the
day the GSNCAC receives the complete Notice.
