Home or away? Establishing if domestic or international arbitration legislation applies

For over 50 years arbitrations in South Africa were governed by the Arbitration Act 42 of 1965. This legislation did not distinguish between, or prescribe different procedures for, international and domestic arbitrations. This changed in 2017 with the promulgation of the International Arbitration Act 15 of 2017 (International Act). Since then (subject to transitional provisions applicable to arbitrations that began prior to 2017) international arbitrations seated in South Africa are governed by the International Act, whereas domestic arbitrations continue to be governed by the 1965 legislation (Domestic Act).
