The present paper intends to analyze how arbitral tribunals can and should act when the arbitral procedure is faced with issues related to corruption. The context in which Brazil is now inserted provides conditions for the arbitrators to come across these issues more often. On the one hand, the Brazilian political scenario demonstrates intense initiatives for countering corruption, which also involves several public related entities; on the other hand, there is a great incentive for governmental entities, either directly or indirectly owned by the State, to increasingly engage in arbitral procedures. Taken those circumstances into account, it is necessary to analyze what are the possible difficulties that arbitrators may find in order to conduct such proceedings and the possible answers and remedies to those issues.
