The ICSID Institution Rules were adopted by the Administrative Council of the Centre pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the ICSID Convention.
The ICSID Institution Rules apply from the filing of a Request for arbitration or conciliation under the ICSID Convention to the date of registration or refusal to register. If a Request is registered, the ICSID Arbitration or Conciliation Rules apply to the subsequent procedure. The ICSID Institution Rules do not apply to the initiation of post-Award remedy proceedings, or to proceedings pursuant to the ICSID Additional Facility Rules, the ICSID Fact-Finding Rules or the ICSID Mediation Rules.
