The Asia Cup Moot, or Asia Cup in short, is an annual international moot court competition that is open to law schools in Asia. The competition inaugurated in 1999 and is held in Tokyo, Japan. It is jointly organised by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan and the International Law Students Exchange Council, and the moot problem typically contains issues pertaining to public international law, international humanitarian law, and international human rights.[1][2][3][4][5] The top 10–12 scoring teams for the memorials qualify for the international rounds in Tokyo, but generally each country except Japan is only permitted to send one team.[6] Each team may feature up to four oralists. As of 2017, 45 different law schools have competed in Tokyo since the moot's inception.
For some schools, the moot (as is the Red Cross International Humanitarian Law Moot in Hong Kong) is seen as a rite of passage for Asian mooters before they go on to participate in the larger international moots, such as the Jessup Moot and Vis Moot.
National University of Singapore is the most successful schools winning six championships. The Philippines and Singapore, with nine wins each, are the winningest countries. Since 2010, Singapore has dominated the moot, with NUS taking the last three championships, and Singapore Management University reaching the international finals six years in a row between 2010 and 2015—winning three—and having 12 of its oralists ranked in the top 5 for Best Oralist.
