DIS Rules on Expert Determination (2010)
2.1 The party wishing to initiate expert determination proceedings (applicant) shall file a written request to obtain an expert determination pursuant to the DIS Rules on Expert Determination with the DIS Main Secretariat. Upon filing such a request with the DIS Main Secretariat, the applicant shall send a copy of the request to the other party of the agreement pursuant to section 1 subsection 1 (opponent). The request shall be fully substantiated.
2.2 The request shall be submitted in a number of copies at least sufficient to provide one copy for each arbitration expert and the DIS. If the number of copies is insufficient, the DIS Main Secretariat requests the applicant to make a corresponding supplementation and sets a time-limit for compliance. Upon filing the request the applicant shall pay the DIS procedural fee pursuant to the schedule of costs (appendix to section 30 subsection 6) in force on the date of receipt of the request by the DIS Main Secretariat. The DIS Main Secretariat invoices the applicant for the DIS procedural fee and, if payment has not already been made, sets a time-limit for payment.
2.3 The expert determination proceedings commence upon receipt of the request by the DIS Main Secretariat (subsection 1), provided that within the time-limits set by the DIS, which may be subject to reasonable extension, the DIS has received the number of required copies of the request pursuant to subsection 1 and the DIS procedural fee pursuant to subsection 2 has been paid. The DIS informs the parties about the commencement of the proceedings without undue delay.
