Jurisdiction of International Arbitration Commissions in China
In addition to arbitrable disputes between entities and/or individuals from mainland China, the international arbitration commissions in China also have jurisdiction over the arbitrable disputes between entities and/or individuals from China, a foreign country, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macao Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan region.
If a disputing party challenges the arbitration commission’s jurisdiction over the case, the arbitration commission has the power to make a decision on its jurisdiction. Such power may also be delegated to the arbitral tribunal to hear the case. For more detailed rules regarding such power, please refer to the applicable arbitration rules.
