Treaties in Force as of January 1, 2020ForewordTreaties in Force is prepared by the Department of State for the purpose of providing information on treaties andother international agreements to which the United States has become a party and which are carried on the records of theDepartment of State as being in force as of its stated publication date, January 1, 2020.The electronic edition of Treaties in Force may be updated periodically throughout the year on the Treaty Affairswebpage. It is presented in PDF format, which allows text searches and printing of the entire document or selections fromit. A number of format changes were introduced in the 2016 version of Treaties in Force. A description of those changesmay be found in the Foreword to the 2016 edition.Special note: Due to complications arising from the Covid-19 pandemic, the Office of Treaty Affairs will not beissuing a print edition in 2020.ArrangementTreaties in Force is arranged in two sections. Section 1 includes bilateral treaties and other international agreementslisted by country or other international entity with subject headings under each entry. Arrangements with territorialpossessions of a country appear at the end of the entry for that country. In some cases, treaties and international agreementsapplicable to a territory prior to its independence are included in the entry for that country on the basis of its assumption oftreaty obligations upon becoming independent, as noted at the beginning of the entry for that country. For convenience,some treaties and agreements concluded with countries whose name or statehood status has changed continue to be listedunder the name in use at the time the agreement was concluded, if the title of the treaty or agreement has not been formallyamended.Section 2 lists multilateral treaties and other international agreements to which the United States is a party, arrangedby subject. The depositary is the authoritative source for a current list of parties and information on other mattersconcerning the status of the agreement, and status information often changes. Information is provided on the depositary forthe agreement in question, and contact information, including an Internet site is provided for the depositary where available.ScopeTreaties in Force uses the term “treaty” in the generic sense as defined in the Vienna Convention on the Law ofTreaties, that is, an international agreement “governed by international law, whether embodied in a single instrument or intwo or more related instruments and whatever its particular designation.” The term “treaty” as a matter of U.S.constitutional law denotes international agreements made by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate inaccordance with Article II, section 2 of the Constitution of the United States. In addition to such “treaties”, this publicationcovers international agreements in force that have been concluded by the Executive (a) pursuant to or in accordance withexisting legislation or a prior treaty; (b) subject to congressional approval or implementation, and/or (c) under and inaccordance with the President’s constitutional powers.Treaties in Force includes those treaties and other international agreements entered into by the United States which,as of the specified date, had not expired by their own terms, been denounced by the parties, replaced or superseded by otheragreements, or otherwise definitely terminated. Certain agreements, particularly those concerned with World War II andthe immediate postwar period, which contain continuing provisions or which have not been clearly terminated in theirentirety are included even though operations under the agreements may have ceased. Additionally, certain foreignassistance and grant agreements under which principle operations have concluded but which have not been terminated,have been omitted. While all efforts are made to ensure the accuracy of this publication, the presence or absence of aparticular agreement, as well as the details cited regarding a listed agreement, should not be regarded as determinative ofthe status of the agreement. Some categories of agreements, such as those implementing certain other agreements, aredeliberately omitted from this publication even though they constitute binding international agreements. If there is aquestion about the status or details of a particular agreement, the text of the agreement itself always should be consulted inthe first instance. Please bring any suspected errors or omissions to the attention of the Office of Treaty Affairs at the U.S.Department of State.i
