 State
practice on the Internet
Access to databases
03 November 2005
The Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea (DOALOS), Office of
Legal Affairs, United Nations Secretariat, has prepared the present web site in
order to provide comprehensive information on the status of State practice. The
site contains the national legislation of coastal States and treaties
dealing with the delimitation of maritime boundaries, as made available
throughout the years to the United Nations. Whenever possible, the texts are
accompanied by illustrative maps. In addition, the site contains other reference
material, such as tables indicating the status of the United Nations Convention
on the Law of the Sea, summary of national claims to maritime jurisdiction, etc.
National legislation, treaties on the delimitation of maritime boundaries and other
relevant information contained in this Internet publication were obtained from reliable sources with a view to ensuring the
most accurate representation of the current status. Most of the information has
already been published in the Law of the Sea Bulletin, a periodic publication of
the Division or in other Law of the Sea publications issued to date. Texts
of numerous maritime
boundary delimitation treaties have been published in the United Nations Treaty Series, a United Nations publication.
However, the site may not always reflect the latest
developments, especially those which have not been brought to the attention of
the Division. To report any new developments or
inaccuracies regarding the published information and/or maritime claims, please contact the
Division, DC2-0460, United Nations, New York, NY 10017, or send an
e-mail to the Division.
