The International Arbitration Commission is composed of lawyers who practice international commercial arbitration and international investment arbitration in different jurisdictions.
The Commission mainly focuses on the development of international arbitration law, in particular, new trends in arbitration law and practice.
It also works in co-operation with other commissions when its subject matter comes into play with other areas of law.

- Álvaro López de Argumedo Piñeiro (President)
- Veit Oehlberger (Vice-President)
- Jane Willems (Communication Manager)
- Laurence Kiffer
- Patricia Ann Peterson
In addition to the annual UIA Congress programme, the Commission frequently organises and participates in UIA seminars on international arbitration and related topics.
