The research method used is normative juridical. The results of the study show that the regulation of mediation for the settlement of commercial disputes in Indonesia as regulated in Law Number 30 of 1999 in substance and structure does not meet legal certainty and justice. Meanwhile in Malaysia, the arrangements for dispute resolution mediation regulated in the Kuala Lumpur Regional Arbitration Center Mediation Regulations and the 2012 Mediation Law (UU 749) have met legal certainty and justice.
