This research uses a normative legal research method and data collection is done by literature study. The results of this study showed that the dispute resolution system through the Dispute Settlement Body of the WTO is set forth in the Understanding of Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes. The substance of the provisions contained in this section is the interpretation and implementation of the provisions of Article III of the GATT of 1947 and the implementing agency is the Dispute Settlement Body.
