Abstract This chapter covers the effect, interpretation, and applicability of the Model Law in Singapore law with reference to Sections 3, 4, and 5 of the IAA. In the discussion on Section 3 of the IAA, the chapter explains that Section 3 incorporates the Model Law into Singapore law, but excludes Chapter VIII of the Model Law from incorporation. It also discusses how conflicts between the Model Law and the IAA should be resolved, and when the Model Law should apply. In the discussion on Section 4 of the IAA, the chapter explains that reference may be made to UNCITRAL documents for the purposes of interpreting the Model Law. In the discussion on Section 5 of the IAA, the chapter explains that the Model Law and Part II of the IAA do not apply to arbitrations that are not “international” and only apply to non-international arbitrations if the parties agree in writing. The chapter also discusses what defines an “international” arbitration, including a flow chart that visually demonstrates whether an arbitration is “international”.
