The Rules for arbitration under the auspices of the Centre are the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules of 1976 with certain modifications and adaptations. The Centre offers facilities and assistance for the conduct of arbitral proceedings, including the enforcement of awards made in the proceedings held under the auspices of the Centre. Awards are rendered within six months of the Arbitral Tribunal's receipt of the Respondent's Statement of Defence or Counter Claim.

Parties are free to choose their own arbitrators in the manner indicated in the UNCITRAL Rules but they may also request that the Centre appoint arbitrators. The Centre maintains an international panel of experienced arbitrators for this purpose. The costs of arbitration at the Centre include administrative charges as well as the fees of arbitrators. Parties who wish to use the Centre's arbitration services and facilities should make a written request to the Director of the Centre.
