Procedure for Payment of the Arbitration Fee and Other Expenses

The procedure for payment of the arbitration fee is regulated by Articles 57–59 of the Court Rules.

Except in specific cases provided for by the Rules, the claimant shall be obliged to pay the arbitration fee prior to the submission of the statement of claim to the Arbitral Tribunal.

The Chairperson of the Arbitral Tribunal shall have the authority, upon a party’s motion, to issue an order on increasing or reducing the arbitration fee, or on deferring its payment, which shall be reflected in the order on commencement of the proceedings.

The arbitration fee shall be paid in the following amounts:

• For property (pecuniary) claims – 1% of the amount in dispute, but not less than UAH 7,700 (seven thousand seven hundred hryvnias 00 kopecks).

• For non-property (non-pecuniary) claims, including claims arising from the conclusion, amendment or termination of contracts, cases on declaring transactions invalid, and other non-pecuniary claims – UAH 5,000 (five thousand hryvnias 00 kopecks).”

For non-pecuniary claims, claims arising from the conclusion, amendment or termination of contracts, and cases concerning the invalidation of transactions, the arbitration fee shall amount to UAH 5,000.00

If a statement of claim contains both pecuniary and non-pecuniary claims, or several pecuniary and non-pecuniary claims, the arbitration fee shall be charged for each such claim separately.

In the event of a reduction of the amount in dispute, the arbitration fee already paid shall not be refunded.

Procedure for Payment of the Arbitration Fee and Other Expenses

The amount of the arbitration fee and other expenses payable to the Arbitral Tribunal shall be deemed paid on the date it is credited to the current account of the ASSOCIATION ‘BUSINESS PARTNERS GROUP’.

When paying the arbitration fee, the payment order must specify in the ‘Payment Purpose’ field: ‘Arbitration fee for the consideration of the dispute between (full name or name of the claimant and the respondent)’, as well as indicate the amount of the claim. The payment order, bearing the bank’s mark confirming the transfer of the arbitration fee, shall be attached to the case file.
