For each match there is an umpire, whose primary duty is to decide the result of each rally.
He is also required to exercise judgment in applying some laws and regulations, such as deciding whether a rally should be a let because a player's service or return may have been affected by circumstances outside the player's control, or whether a player's behaviour is acceptable.
An assistant umpire is solely responsible for decisions on edge balls at the side of the table nearest to him, and he has the same power as the umpire to decide the legality of a player's service action, whether a player obstructs the ball and some of the conditions for a let.

Table tennis does not have a line judge. It has an umpire and assistant umpire. Where an umpire is officiating alone, his is the final decision on all questions of fact that arise during a match, including decisions on all edge balls and on all aspects of service.

The primary duty of the match umpire is to decide the result of each rally. In principle, the umpire has no discretionary powers, but he is required to exercise judgment in applying some laws and regulations, such as deciding whether a rally should be a let because a player's service or return may have been affected by circumstances outside the player's control, or whether a player's behaviour is acceptable. Where the umpire is officiating alone, his is the final decision on all questions of fact that arise during a match, including decisions on all edge balls and on all aspects of service. In these circumstances he is directly responsible also for timing the duration of play, but when the expedite system is in operation he is assisted by another official who acts as stroke counter.
