Start with consent

Participation in IOMed does not, by itself, establish consent for a particular dispute.

Classify the treaty text, dispute track, parties and procedural conditions first.

Current screening

IOMed named; later opt-in required

Reference: Articles 2 and 24–29

The constituent Convention defines IOMed’s three case tracks, but mutual consent must still be expressed before or after a dispute arises. Ratification alone creates no obligation to mediate a particular dispute.

Consent checkpoint

Do not confuse the institutional framework with case consent. Confirm the parties, dispute track, scope, declarations, authority and procedural conditions.

Possible next steps

Method

A map with legal guardrails

The mapper keeps treaty metadata separate from legal conclusions. Each record carries a review status, provenance link and date so users can see what has—and has not—been verified.

Record the instrument, parties, status, scope and authoritative source.
02
Classify
Separate State–State, investor–State and commercial dispute tracks.
03

Research-use notice

This independent research tool is not affiliated with ASEAN or IOMed and does not provide legal advice. A mapped relationship or IOMed status does not establish jurisdiction or consent. Always review the authoritative instrument, applicable declarations, rules and domestic authority before acting.
