United States Department of State Treaties in Force Supplemental List of Treaties and Other International Agreements This publication lists treaties and other international agreements of the United States placed on record in the Department of State between January 1, 2020 and January 1, 2021. It is intended to supplement the Treaties in Force 2020. Compiled by the Treaty Affairs Staff, Office of the Legal Adviser, U.S. Department of State Foreword The Treaties in Force Supplement 2021 is prepared by the Department of State for the purpose of providing information on treaties and other international agreements to which the United States has become a party or which have been added to the records at the Office of Treaty Affairs of the Department of State as being in force as of its stated publication date, January 1, 2021. The electronic edition of Treaties in Forces Supplement 2021 may be updated periodically throughout the year on the Treaty Affairs webpage. It is presented in PDF format, which allows text searches and printing of the entire document or selections from it. Due to complications arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Office of Treaty Affairs will not be releasing a full Treaties in Force publication in 2021. This publication is intended to supplement Treaties in Force 2020; for an index of treaties and agreements which have entered into force prior to January 1, 2020 please refer to that volume. Arrangement Treaties in Force Supplement 2021 is arranged in two parts. Part 1 includes bilateral treaties and other international agreements listed by country or other international entity with subject headings under each entry. Part 2 lists multilateral treaties and other international agreements to which the United States is a party, arranged by subject. Where applicable, information is provided on the depositary for the treaty or agreement in question, and contact information, including an Internet site is provided for the depositary where available. The depositary is the authoritative source for a current list of parties and information on other matters concerning the status of the treaty or agreement. Scope Treaties in Force uses the term “treaty” in the generic sense as defined in the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, that is, an international agreement “governed by international law, whether embodied in a single instrument or in two 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 in accordance with Article II, section 2 of the Constitution of the United States. In addition to such “treaties”, this publication covers international agreements in force that have been concluded by the Executive (a) pursuant to or in accordance with existing legislation or a prior treaty; (b) subject to congressional approval or implementation, and/or (c) under and in accordance with the President’s constitutional powers. While all efforts are made to ensure the accuracy of this publication, the presence or absence of a particular agreement, as well as the details cited regarding a listed agreement, should not be regarded as determinative of the status of the agreement. Some categories of agreements, such as those implementing certain other agreements, are deliberately omitted from this publication even though they constitute binding international agreements. If there is a question about the status or details of a particular agreement, the text of the agreement itself always should be consulted in the 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.
