Multilateral Treaties to which The Holy See is Party

This table attempts to list all multilateral treaties in which the Holy See has become a contracting party, either as such or in the name and on behalf of Vatican City State. The table attempts to be exhaustive, but cannot guarantee completeness.

With the kind permission of the author, the following doctoral thesis was consulted to collect the data included in this table:

Pichu Mukanya, Jean Faustin, Le Saint-Siège et les accords multilateraux. Regard sur la participation du Saint-Siège à la vie internationale multilatérale, avec une attention particulière pour le droit international humanitaire (Roma 2024).

= The gray background color indicates treaties that are no longer in force or that were later replaced by a new version, even if the new version has not yet been ratified by all the states that had adopted the earlier version.

In the French version of this page, the titles of the treaties are given in French and the download links (where available) also lead to the French version. The versions of this page in the other languages give the titles in English and refer to the download of the English version.
