Using normative legal research that is used using the law approach and comparative law. The results show that dispute reso- lution can be done electronically through an arbitration institution. Electronic arbitration arrangements and procedures do not conflict with the provisions of Law No. 30 of 1999 concerning Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution (UUAAPS). With respect to electronic arbitration awards, decisions that are valid and have legal force remain valid as long as conventional arbitral awards comply with the provi- sions of Article 54 paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) and have executive power as long as they comply with the provisions of Article 59 para- graph (2) of Law Number 30 of 1999 on Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution (UUAAPS).

The legal power of electronic arbitral awards based on the ITE Law, which is electronic which has the power of proof with other conventional documents, if at any time it is needed as evidence in related disputes.
