One week to go until the Competition Begins!

One week to go until the IBA ICC Moot Court Competition 2026 begins in The Hague!

The Organising Office is putting the final touches in place to ensure a smooth and memorable week of pleadings at Leiden University. However, we are not the only ones preparing. If you are a participating team or judge, here is a quick checklist to review before packing your bags:

🔷 Passport and travel documents: Bring your passport and visa (if required), and keep printed and/or digital copies as backup.

🔷 Competition materials and notes: Have printed copies ready for the oral rounds. Remember: electronic devices may not be used by teams during oral pleadings.

🔷 Formal attire: Pack smart outfits for the hearings and comfortable clothing to explore The Hague.

🔷 Chargers and adaptors: The Netherlands uses Type C and F plugs. Make sure you have the right adaptors for your devices.

🔷 Weather-appropriate clothing: Dutch weather is often unpredictable, even during the summer. A light rain jacket and a small umbrella are recommended, just in case.

We look forward to welcoming you all to The Hague very soon. Safe travels!
