There is no appeals procedure against an award made in Malaysia under the Arbitration Act 2005. The only recourse is to set aside the award. The application to set aside an award has to be made within 90 days of receipt of the award, and the grounds for setting aside such an award are set out in section 37 of the Act. This article is part of a series on arbitral awards in Malaysia and, in particular, discusses challenging an arbitral award and other actions.
