Fees and expenses of counsels and other experts incurred by the parties
To the extent the tribunal finds it reasonable, these fees and expenses may be incorporated into arbitration costs.
Other reasonable expenses
If the JCAA pays fees and expenses on behalf of the parties or the tribunal in connection with, among other things, arranging for hearing room, interpreter, court reporter, delivery of documents, payment of arbitrator's remuneration and expenses, these fees and expenses are incorporated into arbitration costs.
How arbitration costs will be allocated between the parties?
The deposit paid by the parties covers the arbitrator's remuneration and expenses, and other reasonable expenses incurred with respect to the arbitral proceedings.
The tribunal decides on how the arbitration costs are apportioned between the parties when it issues the final award or the decision to terminate the arbitral proceedings.
If the claimant withdraws a request for arbitration before the constitution of the arbitral tribunal, the JCAA will decide on the allocation of arbitration costs excluding fees and expenses of counsels and other experts incurred by the parties.
