Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 14 days
- Trigger
- Service of the arbitration claim form within the jurisdiction
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
